Turkey goes to election run-off

Recep Tayyip Erdogan led the first round with 49.51% of the vote.

Turkey's powerful president, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, will go head to head with his opposition rival in a run-off vote, the supreme election council has confirmed. Mr Erdogan led the first round with 49.51% of the vote, its chairman said. Although he had a clear lead over his main challenger Kemal Kilicdaroglu, who polled 44.88%, he needed more than half the vote to win the race outright. Our reporter brings us up to date with the latest and we get reaction from voters in the country.
