Local elections were held in Turkey on 30 March 2014. Metropolitan and district mayors as well as their municipal council members in cities and muhtars and elderly councils in rural areas (and also in mahalles within urban areas) were elected. In light of the controversy around the elections it was viewed as a referendum on the government of Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan.
