%X According to Article 67 of the 1982 Constitution, the election laws must be regulated in a manner that accommodates the principles of justice in representation and stability in administration. These principles work in the opposite direction. Therefore, electoral systems have preferred one of these two principles while the other compromises from the first. First of all, goals of election threshold implementation and to what extent these goals are achieved will be dwelled on this article. Then the constitutional amendment in the referendum held on 2017 how would affect these two functions, and whether the 10% electoral threshold would contribute to ensuring justice in representation are evaluated. It also examines the election alliances, which were adopted before the 24 June 2018 elections, how had an impact on the election threshold. It is concluded that the goals wanted with the election threshold are not fulfilled to a great extent and that the lack of the representation justice has negative effects on the voting activities of the voters and the election alliances have the potential to lift the election threshold
