Party/list votes and seats follow the election-era ballot labels. Coalition subtotal rows are excluded to avoid double counting. Seats are mandates won by each ballot list, including candidates of allied parties on that list; they are not a later party-membership snapshot. Previous seats compare the immediately preceding general election only where the same organisation and ballot identity can be matched. Independents and changed alliances have no inferred comparison. Colours are an editorial palette; ideological labels describe broad party traditions, not individual candidates. The official YSK historical compilation does not report a separate valid-ballot denominator for this election. Shares here use the sum of the published party vote rows; they should not be combined with different valid-vote figures in other historical compilations.
