Election in Finland
 
We have the election of a new parliament in Finland today. Well, actually, for the past 3 weeks we have been able to cast a pre-vote, today is the final day to vote.

Doesn't sound very democratic to me... :roll: Is it because of low rate of voting in previous elections, or has it been like that right from the beginning?

;) :lol:

I've been voting for almost six years now, and it's always been the same party. But I still vote for a person, not a party.

Can I ask which party you voted for? No need to answer if you think that's too personal - I understand completely. Would be nice to know tho.
