The current president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, won the presidential elections in Turkey. With the election victory, Erdogan supporters, especially the AK Party, took to the streets. Thousands of people gathered in Uskudar, the stronghold of the AK Party in Istanbul, formed convoys with their cars, and some people danced. Erdogan was competing with the Republican People's Party leader Kemal Kılıcdaroglu in the election.

Yakup Ascıoglu (student): We are not surprised. There were 12 elections, we won again. No problem, we continue. Everything will be very nice. We argue at school, we study at university. Everyone says, "You vote for the Ak Parti, you are the sheep". But today you see it here. Everyone voted for the AK Party here and they made Erdoğan president once again. They called us sheep, so we put them.
