Turkey Heads To Polls In Referendum On Expanding Erdogan’s Powers

Turkish voters are casting their ballots in a highly contested constitutional referendum.
Enough “yes” votes could grant sweeping powers to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, radically changing Turkey’s political system.
Polling stations opened at 7 a.m. in the east of Turkey on Sunday and an hour later in the west while results are expected during the evening hours.
President Erdogan cast his ballot in Istanbul and told reporters after voting that this referendum is now about a new administrative system for the Republic of Turkey.
