At face value it seems like AKP won today's elections in Turkey by securing more than 50% of the vote. However, the goal was to push the nationalist MHP out of parliament. If this would have worked, the Akp would have secured the supermajority it needs to unilaterally rewrite the constitution. But on the basis of what I have heard so far there will be 4 parties in the Turkish parliament and despite the huge vote, AKP will need to get the support of the opposition for the new Constitution.

For Erdogan this means the end of his dreams to become the president of Turkey with powers similar to those of the French president (highly centralised powers with a relatively powerless parliament).

Seems like a good day for democracy in Turkey to me.
