How do Turkish elections work? Will we have to wait for days for the results? Or will we start getting results soon after the polls close?

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say I suspect higher turnout would help the HDP and other opposition parties.

The reporter - who was calling in to CNN Türk by telephone - sounded extremely frantic. She said there was a disagreement over how the ballots were disposed of, but was drowned out by shouting bystanders.

She reported votes were still being counted at other tables in the room unconnected to the squabble and that the situation calmed down as police intervened.

Reporting restrictions still in place one hour after polls closed across Turkey. No indication yet on when they might be lifted.

Turnout is reported to be high and above 80%

With the reporting restrictions still in place, no one knows WHO is getting these votes

At this point I think they're going to count all the votes and then just release them all at once.

The websites of pro-government newspapers like Sabah and Yeni Şafak have begun to put out what they call results under the titles "Party 1", "Party 2", "Party 3" and "Party 4". Their colours match those used by the four main political parties.

The Yeni Şafak map - which it says relies on AA figures - is a sea of yellow.

This is really strange, none of the TV stations are ACTUALLY displaying the results and the websites show different results

Gaziantep is a crucial province where the governing AK Party has traditionally been dominant, but the HDP are also seen as competitive now that they are fielding the high profile former mayor Celal Doğan.

YeniSafak says:

Parti 1: 274
Parti 2: 120
Parti 3:  87
Parti 4:  69

Barest of majorities for AKP.

He would be 2 seats short of a majority if this holds

Şanlıurfa results a 12-seat behemoth in the southeast of Turkey where the HDP were expected to surge - and so far, it looks like they are.
