They are legitimate. What is not legitimate is the road of the elections where TV channels are rarely give any time to other parties besides Erdoğan. And he stills take results like this. Still lost in Ankara,İzmir,İstanbul,Antalya, other big cities with impact on economy.

Western media is harsh.

Let's be honest with you: I wouldn't trust our own elections to be fair without the OSCE being present. Let alone the Turkish elections.

Then can you make a comment like "Dutch elections = North Korean Elections". I don't think so. Every party has their member in every voting spot and they count votes together with YSK(Voting Council). They even have websites for people where they share their votes. Its really not that hard to count the votes and tell people if there is something wrong.

People do vote in Turkey and they know the importance of that. They have to.

But who controls the YSK ? Do you really believe in elections when a certain party controls the entire political process ?
