The Areda Survey research company surveyed 2,024 respondents between January 25 and January 29 about which candidate they are choosing for the post of mayor of Istanbul. As a result, the current mayor of Ekrem Imamoglu won 48% of the votes, and the candidate from the ruling party Murat Kurum - 52%. So it is quite possible that the ruling justice and developфment pariah (AK Parti) will regain Istanbul in the elections to be held on March 31, 2024.
