Candidates

Information on the candidates for the 2025 county elections and municipal elections will be available in the Information and Result Service as of 13 March 2025.

Each candidate has a candidate number. Candidate numbers in the county elections start from the number 2002, and candidate numbers in the municipal elections start from the number 2. In the county elections, voters may only vote for a candidate standing for election in their own wellbeing services county, while in the municipal elections, voters may only vote for a candidate standing for election in their own municipality of residence.

Your wellbeing services county is stated on the polling card sent to you before the elections. You can also search for it based on your municipality of residence using the search function on the Electionsfinland.fi website.

In the county elections, voters will elect councillors to the county councils that decide on the organisation and provision of health, social and rescue services in the wellbeing services counties. In the municipal elections, voters will elect councillors to municipal councils that decide on the activities and finances of municipalities.
