Turkey elects new Parliament
About 42 million in Turkey go to the polls for key vote. The early election was called to resolve a political crisis after parliament repeatedly failed to agree on a candidate for president.
Polling booths opened at 7 a.m. (0400 GMT) in east Turkey. In the west, including the capital Ankara and main commercial city Istanbul, they opened an hour later.
Unofficial results are due after 9 p.m. (1800 GMT). Click here to see some pictures.Labels: elections2007
