> ANKARA: President Tayyip Erdogan's government is inclined to hold Turkiye's elections as scheduled in June, having cooled on the idea of postponing due to this month's devastating earthquake, three officials said on Wednesday.
> The government official said a May election, as Erdogan previously planned, would leave little time for election authorities to prepare and make logistical arrangements for the voting of those affected in the quake zone, home to some 13 million people.
> Another senior Turkish official also said the idea of postponing the elections had been shelved.
