Erdogan's a serious problem in a lot of ways, not least because he seeks to overturn the secularization policies of Atatürk but this could get worse before it gets better. The first hurdle will be forming a coalition among Turkey's other parties.

Together, the liberal, secular and Kurdish parties only got 13% of the vote to Erdogan's AKP's 41%. That means that there's 46% of the vote knocking around among the more right wing, more Islamist parties. If Erdogan can build his coalition from among those groups, the net result might be to move Turkey farther to the right and farther away from a secular government.
