Ragıp Soylu, the head of the Turkish office of the specialized news newspaper Middle Eastern Eye, shared on the social network Twitter a video from the moment of the Turkish President Erdogan's vote.
The President is seen at the entrance to the door of the polling station waiting for his turn to vote.
What makes the video more interesting was the moment when two citizens who were in front of him, turned their heads and discovered that the president was behind them.

Turkey has held presidential and parliamentary elections, which are being considered the most important elections in the state's 100-year modern history.
The voting centers are closed and the counting of the ballots is already waiting to find out the winner. Erdogan's power is seriously threatened for the first time in 20 years, with the united opposition holding a slight lead in the polls.
