-- ISTANBUL -- A clear majority of Turks will vote “yes” in a referendum on Sunday on constitutional reforms proposed by the government, pollsters said on Saturday in a boost for Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan.

Erdogan says the reforms will bring the constitution, drafted after a 1980 military coup, closer in line with those of the European Union, which Turkey seeks to join.
