BERLIN -- Turkey's roughly 3.4 million voters living abroad are expected to play a key role in determining the outcome of this month's presidential election, in which incumbent Recep Tayyip Erdogan faces a serious challenge to his two-decade rule.
Turkish citizens at home will head to the polls on May 14. But those abroad, who constitute 5% of the total electorate, started casting their ballots early on April 27.
