Foundation.
Start of the Vote and Beyond initiative dates back to Gezi Park protests in 2013. It was founded by 8 volunteers that aim to direct the efforts of the protesters to a solid and fast resulting movement, since a great majority of the protesters were not related to any political entity before the protests. Based on scientific research results done with Turkish voters 28% of the participants of a survey who stated that they don't believe that the election results will not be fair increased to 43% in 2015. The same research demonstrated that ratio of voters who believe that the results of the elections will be fair decreased to 43% in 2015 from 70% in 2007.
