Hmm I don't recall Cyprus ever really giving Turkey high points in the years when it was 100% televoting. That's a bit strange considering they get diaspora votes from countries like France and Netherlands, but hardly anything from a country where they are in a sizable minority. Does the north not participate in the televote?
About sizable minority, don't you know that the Northern part of Cyprus is a de facto state and there is no CYTA network over there, so they cannot vote in ESC?
Oh I didn't know that. But that explains why Turkey doesn't get diaspora votes from Cyprus then.
It happened only in 2003, Cyprus gave Turkey 8 (or 7) points. Never again!
I was expecting points to Dum Tek Tek, and I personally voted for both Dum Tek Tek and We Could Be The Same, but they both got 0!
Cypriots also gave points to Düm tek tek as well as to For real. Unfortunately the results from 2010 onwards have never been released. However, apart from North Cyprus I thought that in the Sothern part would live a Turkish-speaking minority, too. Perhaps they are just not interested.
Yes, I forgot that we gave 4 points to Turkey in 2004, but we didn't give any points to Turkey in 2009, I remember very well that I said that my money went for nothing.Cypriots also gave points to Düm tek tek as well as to For real.

The "Turkish speaking minority" living in the South are Gypsies, so I don't think they are interested at all.
2 points for Düm tek tek.
