When Are the 2028 Elections?

Under Constitution Art. 77, elections for the Grand National Assembly (TBMM) and the Presidency are held on the same day every five years. The last general election was held on 14 May 2023; the presidential election concluded with the runoff on 28 May 2023.

The rule that sets voting day is written in law: under Law No. 6271 on Presidential Elections, Art. 3 and Law No. 2839 on Parliamentary Elections, Art. 6, the vote is cast on the last Sunday before five years have passed since the previous election. Since 14 May 2028 is a Sunday, the regular date calculated under this rule is 7 May 2028. The election calendar starts 60 days before voting day.

This date applies if no decision is made to renew elections. Constitution Art. 116 allows elections to be renewed earlier by a three-fifths majority of the total membership of the Grand National Assembly (TBMM) or by decision of the President, and there is public debate about an earlier date in 2028. As of 11 November 2026 there is no official renewal decision. We cover the possibility of an early election separately on our 2027 election software page.

What Does a Results Site Need on Election Night 2028?

Holding the general election and the presidential election on the same day means a results site must show two separate elections, with two separate logics, on the same night. The table below summarizes these needs together with their legal basis:

KonuRuleImpact on a results site
PresidentialAn absolute majority of valid votes is required; if none is reached, a runoff between the top two candidates is held on the second Sunday (Constitution Art. 101, Law No. 6271, Art. 4).Candidate-based results and, for a possible runoff, a second busy night two weeks later.
Parliamentary600 seats, the d'Hondt system and a 7 percent national threshold (Law No. 2839, Arts. 4, 33, 34). Alliances are assessed together for the threshold.Party and alliance votes and the distribution by electoral district should be shown separately.
Broadcast banUntil 18:00 on voting day no broadcasts about results may be made; between 18:00 and 21:00 only YSK announcements may be published (Law No. 298, Art. 80).Results pages should be ready but opened in line with the ban hours.
Opinion pollsNo polls or predictions may be published in the 10 days before voting day (Law No. 298, Art. 55/B).The pre-election content calendar should be planned around this ban.

Why Does Preparing for 2028 Today Matter?

Election results pages opened in election week cannot become visible in search engines in time. Most of the preparation is done months before the election.

Search visibility takes time

For a province or district results page to appear in searches such as "Ankara election results", the page must already be live, crawled and indexed. Results pages for past elections start this clock today.

Past data means comparison

On election night, what readers most want to know is "what changed since last time". Having the 2018 and 2023 results ready with province-district breakdowns makes it possible to present the 2028 results in context.

Infrastructure load is not tested on election night

Election night traffic is nothing like an ordinary news day. On a hosted platform, servers, caching and scaling are the provider's responsibility; you focus on content.

Frequently Asked Questions

On what date will the 2028 elections be held?
Under the rule in the law, the vote is cast on the last Sunday before five years have passed since the previous election (Law No. 6271, Art. 3, Law No. 2839, Art. 6). Since the last election was held on 14 May 2023, the calculated regular date is 7 May 2028. If a decision is made to renew elections, the date changes; as of 11 November 2026 there is no such decision.
Which elections will be held together in 2028?
Under Constitution Art. 77, presidential and parliamentary elections are held on the same day. Local elections, however, follow a separate calendar, and under Law No. 2972 their regular date is March 2029.
Will it be able to show live results on election night?
The historical elections on the platform are finalized official results. The real-time ballot box feed, by contrast, is designed as a separate feed and planned around election night. Its scope and timing are clarified together based on the election date and your needs; we do not promise a live feed today.

No. KEYDAL Seçim is an election results publishing platform: it makes official results readable with province and district breakdowns.
