Turkey's Nationalist Movement Party, or MHP, leader, Devlet Bahceli, was re-elected during the party's 11th Regular Grand Congress in Ankara on Saturday.
Bahceli was the only candidate to run for the chairmanship and garnered all 1,149 valid votes out of 1,160 delegates at 14 ballot boxes.
Devlet Bahceli, 67, has headed the party since its first leader, Alparslan Turkes, died in 1997.
The congress was timed to coincide with the Day of Newroz – a spring festival which falls on March 21 each year and is celebrated mainly by the country's Kurdish population.
The party's deputy chairman, Semih Yalcin, has previously said it was not a coincidence that the congress and Newroz were happening on the same day.
"Just like Newroz is the forerunner of spring, the congress is the herald of the ranks that will lead the MHP to power in the June elections," said Yalcin.
The party held its 10th congress on Nov. 4, 2012, when a total of 1,241 delegates voted to elect the leader.
