Ankara, September 12: Most articles of the constitutional reform package are seen as progressive and uncontroversial.
Changes to the make-up of the Constitutional Court and the judiciary are among the proposed reforms.
According to a late opinion poll, a clear majority of Turks supported the package, Reuters reported on Sunday.
Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan says the changes to a charter drafted in the 1980s after a military coup are needed to strengthen democracy.
The Turkish chief executive further pointed out that the reform package could also bring his country closer to European norms.
Since winning power in 2002, Erdogan’s AK Party has overseen a record period of economic growth and relative stability.
The referendum result could also enhance Erdogan’s chances of forming a single-party government for a third consecutive term after an election due by July next year.
