Istanbul Goes Back to Polls in Critical Vote

Dorian Jones

   ISTANBUL - Istanbul votes again in a mayoral election Sunday, after
   authorities voided an opposition victory in March that ended 15 years
   of control by President Recep Tayyip Erdogan's AKP Party.

   The CHP's Ekrem Imamoglu, a once-obscure opposition figure, pulled off
   the political upset, but it was eventually undone by Turkey's
   president, who cited mistakes in the appointment of polling station
   officials. Imamoglu was booted out of his office and Turkish officials
   ordered a re-run.
