Greece's conservative New Democracy party won a landslide victory in the country's second election in five weeks Sunday, official projections based on early returns showed, gaining enough parliamentary seats to form a government for a second four-year term.

Kyriakos Mitsotakis' party is projected to win 40.5 percent of the vote, with his main rival, the left-wing Syriza party, suffering a crushing defeat with just under 18 percent projected support, even worse than its 20 percent in the last elections in May.
