Blank and rejected ballots are excluded from result shares. Colours are a display palette. Unknown values remain unreported. Joint electoral lists remain joint results rather than being divided into invented party totals. Previous seats compare the same organisation in the immediately preceding parliamentary election. Turnout is the official percentage of eligible Finnish citizens resident in Finland, excluding citizens living abroad.
