Table of contents

Open- list proportional representation OLPR provides the Finnish electoral system with two levels of competition. Finnish elections, as elections in most Western European countries, are fought between parties or alliances of parties , and the allocation of seats across parties determines how power is distributed and used in the parliament. The open lists and mandatory preferential voting features do, however, also provide the system with a high degree of intraparty competition. This inherent duality has a multitude of effects on how elections are played out at different levels of the political system.

It has consequences for the nomination of candidates, for how campaigns are fought and elections won, and for the behavior and attitudes of voters, politicians, and parties, just to name a few. The effects of this duality and in particular how the high degree of intraparty competition influences the political logic of Finnish politics will be explored later on in this chapter after a thorough presentation of the basic features of the electoral system.
