The dictatorship regime continued its practice of when the people elect non-dictatorship parties within Turkey's electoral politics system the regime just removes the elected through central decree, declaring those elected to be "members of a terrorism organization" or similar while the actual act is obviously just to be elected for "wrong" party.
They gave done this previous electoral period so intensely that the overwhelming majority of those elected by the people in the southeast get usurped and replaced with regime-appointed "trustees" instead.
Batman, Mardin and Halfeti usurped from the only major anti-racist DEM party now,
after recently doing this against a Mayor of the largest opposition party CHP in İstanbul.
