"There is need to refresh the party," argued Ince, but his remarks do not convince many of fellow CHP members.
"The CHP is a democratic party. Everyone has the right to speak their mind but at this stage the majority don't think that a change of the leadership is needed," Yildirim Kaya, a prominent member of the party said to Xinhua.
Kaya argued that CHP's referendum campaign was successful, because the "no" prevailed in the three biggest cities of Turkey, Istanbul, Ankara and Izmir.
Spokeswoman Boke's unexpected resignation may have come as a shock, but according to experts others will not follow and this action will not have a big impact on party matters.
"This resignation is something very personal. No other high ranking official of the party is expected to do the same," said to Xinhua political commentator Deniz Zeyrek.
"I just spoke to Kemal Kilicdaroglu and he told me that an extraordinary congress is out of the question," he said.
The CHP has become for many an anchor to the Turkish democracy after the coup attempt against Erdogan last summer, engineered according to Ankara, by followers of the US exiled muslim cleric Fethullah Gulen.
In the aftermath of the coup attempt, Erdogan and his government carried out a massive crackdown targeting the Gulen network but also other opposition circles, dismissing tens of thousands of civil servants, army and police members and also academics.
