At the same year, the party candidate, an admirer of Ryti, Kaarlo Juho Ståhlberg, was elected the first President of Finland.

Kaarlo Juho Ståhlberg (; January 28, 1865 – September 22, 1952 ) was a Finnish jurist and academic, who played a central role in the drafting of the Constitution of Finland in 1919.

Ståhlberg was born in Suomussalmi, in the Kainuu region of Finland.

Ståhlberg and his family lived in Lahti, where he also went for grammar school.

Ståhlberg's family had always spoken and supported the Finnish language, and the young Ståhlberg was enrolled in Oulu's private Finnish lycee, where he would excel, and was the primus of his class.

Ståhlberg soon began a very long career as the presenter and planner of the Senate's legislation, during the period when Finland was a Russian Grand Duchy.

Ironically, this appointment to a senior position in the Finnish administration was approved by the new Governor General of Finland, Nikolai Bobrikov, whose term in office saw the beginning of the period of Russification, and whose policies represented all that the constitutionalist Ståhlberg was opposed to.

Ståhlberg resigned from the Senate in 1907, due the rejection by Parliament of a Senate bill on the prohibition of alcohol.

In 1908, Ståhlberg was elected as a member of Parliament for the Southern Häme constituency, which he represented until 1910.
