I think the translation might be:

mas largo duradero

Which I guess would literally mean "most long enduring".

mas duradero

Maybe would be "most enduring".

I'm hoping for "longest enduring."

There is no simple way to translate that kind of English construction (adjective + present participle) into Spanish. You will have to use a periphrasis, that is, to rephrase it. Something like

  • el partido político de más larga trayectoria del país
  • el partido político que ha existido por más tiempo en el país

Duradero is not the word you're looking for; it means something that is capable of lasting, or that has shown that it can last, but it doesn't really belong with partido político (it does belong with building materials, or with some abstractions like paz "peace").
