Preliminary results from the Turkish presidential election show Recep Tayyip Erdogan with a comfortable lead over his opponent, Kemal Kilicdaroglu. Sinan Ogan came in a distant third at 6%. 64.1 million people were registered to vote, and turnout was high at 85%. The runup to the election was marred by claims of foreign interference from both sides, with Erdogan and Kilicdaroglu accusing Russia of circulating "montages, conspiracies, deep fakes and tapes". Moscow has categorically denied Kilicdaroglu's claims.
