Turkey’s 15th general election was held on November 3 2002 following the collapse of the DSP-MHP-ANAP coalition led by Bülent Ecevit. It was won by the Justice and Development Party (AKP) led by Recep Tayyip Erdoğan producing a crushing majority in spite of their winning just 34.3% of the national vote. Notably every party previously represented in the Grand National Assembly was ejected from the chamber as none of them crossed the 10 percent threshold.
