Labor, Democracy and Freedom Block's Istanbul Candidate Sebahat Tuncel stated that none of the block's candidates will get into the parliament without Hatip Dicle whose election has not yet been confirmed because of a pending imprisonment sentence given to him shortly before the general election on June 12.

Democratic Society Congress (DTK) Co-Chair, Ahmet Türk, assessed the
election results. He said to DIHA News Agency that "goals were achieved
but we could do better". The final results of the election are very
important for the Block and for the Kurdish people.
The Labor, Democracy and Freedom Block newly elected deputies have met the press in Diyarbakir today. Commenting the election results, the deputies underlined that "politicians bear a tremendous responsibility. it is not possible to respond to the demands of the people without reading the results correctly and drawing the correct conclusions.

BIA - The OSCE Election Monitoring Delegation stated that the general elections on 12 June were done in a pluralistic and secure environment. The delegation criticized the 10-percent electoral threshold and urged the state to "establish a media distant of political pressure".
ANALYSIS (H.A) - The AKP (Justice and Development Party) has increased its votes and led
the race in the election. The fact that the AKP has won the election
following a campaign where it defended capital punishment is an
indication of the public’s mentality in Turkey.
Presidency of the People’s Union of Kurdistan (KCK)- 12th June elections led the society to focus on the solution of the
Kurdish question as well as the democratization of Turkey, rather than
merely being an election of power. For this reason, the election results
express political and social consequences that have to be analysed in
many respects.
Despite the various attempts of Turkish authorities for stealing of the votes and threatening of people to avoid voting for the Kurdish candidates, Labour Democracy and Freedom Block managed to send 36 Kurdish MPs to Turkish parliament.
