The uncertainty this time around is attributable to the predominantly Kurdish Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP). Kurdish political parties shied away from contesting past elections, owing to their fear of failing to clear the 10% popular-vote threshold needed to enter the parliament.
此次的不确定性是由以库尔德人为主的人民民主党（HDP）造成的。库尔德政党过去一直回避参选，因为他们害怕凑不够进入议会所需的10%的公众选票。相反，库尔德政治家会以不受10%门槛限制的独立候选人身份参选。一旦成功当选，他们再重新集结在库尔德政党的旗帜下。
