That being said, in the current political climate, I wouldn't be surprised to learn that enough people really voted that way. Turkey is very divided politically. They should just split up the country and let all the sane people live in a democracy on this side of the bosporus, and have their fascist dictatorship on the other.
I heard something about a decision to accept blank ballots. I have also been reading about the increased harassment of activists by pro-government supporters leading up to the referendum. It certainly wasn't a fair referendum by any stretch of the imagination. Germany could always take the democracy supporters in...
