Previous election coverage
I've written quite on a bit on the 2007 Finnish parliamentary election while guest blogging on Aapotsikko. For reference purposes, I thought I'd link to all the posts in one handy post. So, previously, on a different channel:
- The Coalition's personnel problems - Scandals, schmandals.
- What is this "European Union" you speak of? - The organization that must not be named.
- Greens versus Social Democrats, round three - I guess the Greens won on points.
- Finnish parliamentary election polls - Yes, they're polls.
- What has Princess Diana wrought? - Land mine ban becomes an election topic.
- Damage control - Former Minister of Justice (spoiler!) Leena Luhtanen has awful media skills.
- Hot air on air - Finnish politicians debate on TV quite a lot.
- Prognostication time - I predict all but one party's result within one percentage point and still get the outcome wrong.
- They've got issues - A compendium of election issues.
- Historic centre-right triumph - Results are in.
- Press on the composition of the next government - Everyone agrees that the National Coalition Party is in.
- The Coalition's EU program - a possible source of tension? - The Centre Party may not share their enthusiasm.
- Natural party of power - The Social Democrats ain't one, Quentin.
- Cognitive dissonance - My analysis on why the Social Democrats lost.
- Next Foreign Minister's party affiliation - It's either the Coalition or the Centre. Duh.
- Paavo Väyrynen is an ass - It's funny because it's true.
- Overrated - Sauli Niinistö isn't all that.
- Prime Minister's questions - The Centre's Vanhanen quizzes parliamentary groups.
- Election reform - How to increase proportionality while still giving the large parties an unfair advantage.
- Did the True Finns draw votes from the Centre? - Maybe.
- Finally some answers - Parliamentary groups answer Vanhanen.
- Party time - Vanhanen announces which parties will take part in the government negotiations proper.
- What's important? - What government goals do the likely ruling parties' supporters emphasize?
Not directly related to the election, I also wrote the following:
- Splitters! - Finnish socialists love to find new parties.
- Finnish political typology - Defining characteristics of the main parties' supporters.
- Yay for liberalism - Finnish liberals love to run parties to the ground.
- Happy 50th birthday, EU - Finns still don't like you very much.
- Cellu-losers - Wacky Argentinians protest being poisoned.
