The last hours of Turkey's presidential race turn sour as the candidates argue over refugees.
BBC News, Ankara
For four hours this week Mr Kilicdaroglu took audience questions on a YouTube channel called BaBaLa TV. The broadcast has reached 24 million views by the latest count and Turkey has a population of 85 million.Youth campaigner Mehtep thinks the YouTube marathon could work: "Being on BaBaLa TV affected lots of young voters who didn't vote first time around."
But another shopkeeper refused to tell the BBC who he supported because he feared losing Erdogan supporters as customers.For months Turkey's struggling economy was the number one issue, but as Sunday's run-off has drawn close, the rhetoric has intensified and refugees are at the centre of it. Prof Murat Erdogan , who conducts a regular field study called Syrians Barometer, believes the total number of Syrian refugees and irregular migrants from Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan is closer to six or seven million.
"He knows the level of perceived threats is too high because of the immigrant crisis and terrorist attacks and wars involving Russia, Syria and Azerbaijan."
