The Liberal-Democratic Party in effect turned its back on the cautious establishment politics of Prime Minister Eisaku Sato, who is retiring at 71.

Tanaka, at 54 the youngest prime minister since 1945, won the party presidency and with ii leadership of the government at a convention of the party's members in the Diet, the Japanese parliament. The vote on the second runoff ballot was 282-190. with four blank votes.
