[NEWS] Turkey votes to suspend democracy, enact dictatorship

[Juncoph]

who knows. they voted on it democratically so it doesn't matter. people vote on bad decisions all the time, but that's the point of a democracy- to give people what they want based on a vote

ballots distributed but left blank or otherwise improperly marked were automatically counted as yes votes.

well I'm willing to bet the 99.9% voter turnout was because

ballots distributed but left blank or otherwise improperly marked were automatically counted as yes votes.

which actually happened

so you're basically right

[sir dooble]

I would assume this would put Turkey further away from becoming an EU member, but then again these days, who knows?
