RIHA - DEM Party objected to the Provincial Election Board against the decision to renew the elections, citing two ballot boxes burned by AKP members in Curnê Reş.
 
It was decided to renew the elections yesterday after the AKP objected to 15 ballot boxes in the Curnê Reş district, where the People's Equality and Democracy Party (DEM Party) won the municipality after 45 years. On the election evening, ballots belonging to ballot boxes no. 1119 and 1120, which were objected to by the AKP, were set on fire by a group of 50 people, including Mustafa Bayık, nephew of the current president and AKP candidate Ali Aslan Bayık and municipal employees.
 
Citing the incident with camera recordings as justification, the District Election Board decided to renew the elections, won by the DEM Party with a difference of 521 votes, and hold them on June 2.
 
DEM Party appealed to the Provincial Election Board to annul the decision. In the petition, it was underlined that the DEM Party was the first party in the burned and other contested ballot boxes, and it was noted that the signed minutes of the ballot boxes were delivered to the district election board. In the petition, which stated that the AKP candidate burned the ballot papers because it realized that it would lose, the following statements were made: "By destroying the election bags, a practice will be introduced that will cause the elections to be renewed. This situation will cause every election to be held in the country from now on to turn into chaos.”
 
In the petition, it is emphasized that the contested ballot boxes are not of a nature that would change the election result and said: "Again, the AKP candidate objecting to the election has not made any statement regarding an objection to the Ballot Box Board regarding the alleged ballot boxes, and since he has not made a request for the counting of these ballot boxes, the ballot box result minutes are valid. And the results of the election are valid. There is no reason to cancel it."
