Elections in Finland comprise the parliamentary election, municipal elections, local council elections, the Presidential election, and the election of Members of the European Parliament. Voting is easy as advance polling stations can be found near popular services. Election authorities that comprise representatives of different political parties are responsible for counting the votes.
