How will Turkey's recent parliamentarian election upset affect Turkeys handling of ISIS, Kurds, Iraq, and Syria?

I hope the resulting coalition will roll back some of the strict Islamic laws and move back towards the more balanced approach of Turkey's first president Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. Hopefully they will pull back from support of turning a blind eye to those who want to travel through Turkey to join ISIS.
Recently, Turkish voters broke the 13 years rule of the President Erdogan's AKP [Adalet Ve Kalkinma Partisi (Turkish: Party for Justice and Progress)] party which managed to get 41% of the vote not enough to guarantee a ruling coalition. He had increased the influence of Islam at the expense of other faiths in Turkey.
The pro-Kurdish HDP [Peoples' Democratic Party (Turkish: Halkların Demokratik Partisi (HDP), Kurdish: Partiya Demokratik a Gelan)] crossed the 10% threshold, securing seats in parliament for the first time. HDP represents the Kurds and is generally more liberal

Turkey is definitely in the best position to help the Kurds fighting ISIS on the ground. Even if they don't get directly involved, providing increased medical and logistical help could not only change a lot on the ground in Syria and Iraq, but could also foster a new relationship between the Turkish and the Kurds.

Unfortunately I am still groggy from medicine and sent a blank post. Hopefully my first cup of coffee will improve things.

How does this play with the fact that Iraq is 10% Kurd and those are 90% Sunni?

Anytime an effort to concentrate vast and unprecedented amounts of power into the Executive Branch are rebuffed, it is a victory for all who yearn to breathe free. It doesn't matter if that place is Turkey or the United States; the outcome is the same and the victory is every bit as sweet.
