This market will resolve to “Yes” if a constitutional referendum in Turkey is officially announced by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”. Constitutional referendum refers to any nationwide vote in Turkey on whether to approve an amendment, or multiple amendments, to the Turkish Constitution. Officially announced refers to any announcement of a specific date for the referendum, or a definitive announcement that a referendum will be held (e.g. after a constitutional amendment has passed the parliament and been submitted to a referendum by the president). The primary resolution source for this market will be official information from the government of Turkey; however, a consensus of credible reporting may also be used.**Recent parliamentary consensus on the "Terror-Free Türkiye" initiative, including the August 2026 passage of the Law on Strengthening National Solidarity and Social Integration with 467 votes, has revived official calls for constitutional reform.** Parliament Speaker Numan Kurtulmuş described drafting a new civilian constitution as a "political obligation" and expressed confidence in progress during 2026-2027, citing the broadened alliance across most parties except İYİ. These developments tie directly to the PKK peace process and potential term-limit adjustments for President Erdoğan, whose current mandate ends in 2028. However, advancing any constitutional amendment or full referendum under Article 175 requires at least 360 parliamentary votes for a public vote or 400 to bypass one outright. The ruling AKP-MHP bloc holds roughly 323 seats and still needs additional cross-party support, particularly from DEM lawmakers, amid ongoing negotiations and opposition divisions. As of late August 2026, no draft has been finalized, no formal referendum announcement has occurred, and focus remains on implementing the recent anti-terror framework law rather than immediate ballot measures. Traders price the absence of an announced 2026 referendum at 86.5% "No" due to these procedural and coalition hurdles.
