Turkey elections: Runoff likely as Erdogan's vote share falls below 50%

State-run Anadolu news agency's latest figures show Erdogan's lead under 50 per cent and his main challenger, Kemal Kilicdaroglu, over 44 per cent. If neither wins a majority, they will go to a runoff -- which would be a first for Erdogan. With 89 per cent of the ballot boxes opened, preliminary unofficial results show President Erdogan's share of votes at 49.94 per cent, according to the state-run Anadolu Agency.
