Turkey prepares for key election
Mr Erdogan has been emphasising the government's economic record
|
Political campaigning has ended in Turkey ahead of Sunday's general election, seen as one of the most important in the nation's history.
The early poll was called after MPs from secular parties and the ruling AK Party reached deadlock, after failing to agree on a candidate for president.
The government has been focusing its campaign on its economic record.
The opposition accuses the Islamic-based AK Party of threatening Turkey's secular system.
The election has been called in an effort to break a stalemate over a package of constitutional reforms proposed by the current government of Prime Minister Recip Tayyip Erdogan.
Those reforms include a proposal for the country's president to be elected directly by the people, rather than by parliament.
