Eija-Riitta Korhola-Dunderfelt wrote that removing the troublesome candidate from the list was legal, but criticized that Elina was not informed about it in advance and that her candidacy was thus attempted to be completely prevented. According to her, the election board intervened in the injustice in time. She asked the National Coalition Party how it managed to act against itself. #vaalit #kansalaisoikeudet #politiikka (translated)

Elina Hiltunen wrote that her candidacy in the church elections was attempted to be blocked, but the electoral board rejected the demand. She described what happened as ruthless sabotage and linked it to the National Coalition Party. https://t.co/xzPeEWJzIf #Suomi #politiikka #vaalit (translated)

Elina Hiltunen stated that her name had been crossed out with a ballpoint pen from the candidate documents of the Turku Mikael Parish elections, and the consent form she had signed was missing. According to her, an election official called her about it two hours before the deadline for candidate registration. Hiltunen had stood as a candidate on the Blue Path candidate association's list. She described the list as multi-party and stated that it also included independent candidates and representatives from the Christian Democrats. After resigning from the National Coalition Party, she claimed she was separately asked if she wanted to continue on the list, and she had responded affirmatively. Her husband was also on the same list, and according to Hiltunen, he had no connection to the National Coalition Party. Hiltunen said she would have accepted it if she had been informed in time that she was not wanted on the list. She viewed the last-minute crossing out as a failed sabotage attempt aimed at preventing her participation in the parish elections. She reported that she managed to get to the election office and signed the documents again at 3:45 PM. According to Hiltunen, the election board addressed the matter on October 1, 2026, and unanimously confirmed that a candidate could not be removed by arbitrary crossing out. She stated that she was a candidate for the joint church council with the number 24 and for the parish council with the number 88. A criminal complaint had been filed regarding the events and the unauthorized handling of the documents, according to her. #politiikka #kokoomus #suomi #seurakunta #vaalit #politiikka #vaalit #demokratia (translated)

Yaron Nadbornik wrote that from the articles in Helsingin Sanomat covering the foreign elections, there might have been an impression that the victory of the right-wing candidate was portrayed as a coincidence, a surge of extremist groups, or the result of foolish decisions. In contrast, the success of the left-wing candidate appeared to him as a return of the world to the right track and a relief for journalists after years of injustices or foolishness. He attached to his writing an article about the second round of the Brazilian presidential elections, where the headline indicated that the right-wing Bolsonaro was in the lead. https://t.co/qKugJcZYuv #politiikka #vaalit #medianäkyvyys (translated)

The author considered the result as good news but noted that the pro-Russian party had increased its support. He also saw it as a negative that only just over 51 percent of people voted. According to the author, in a democracy, power should not be left in the hands of only about half of the electorate, or one should accept decisions made by others without complaint. #demokratia #vaalit #Venäjä #FI #RU (translated)

Sture Fjäder wrote that the left made a huge mistake and said he considered it a good thing. According to him, Finns were patriotic, and Finland's security came before the security of the Palestinians. Fjäder also shared a link in the headline, which stated that the SDP and Lindtman were taking a huge risk and that Putin was a greater concern for Finns than gas during the election winter of 2027. https://t.co/jaPvBdV73D #Suomi #politiikka #turvallisuus (translated)

Jocka Träskbäck claimed that the growth of the economy and employment had caused Helsingin Sanomat to react in panic. According to him, the newspaper was currently vigorously campaigning for the left in the elections. #talous #työllisyys #vaalit (translated)

Sture Fjäder claimed that HS wanted SDP and Antti Lindtman as prime minister and estimated the publication's advertising value at 500,000 euros. He said he would be waiting for a ten-page pictorial article about Riikka Purra and Petteri Orpo. #HS #vaalit2027 https://t.co/Wby0EstRl7 #vaalit2027 #politiikka #Suomi (translated)

Korson Jussi I Vantaa defender! wrote that the definitions of assault and electoral harassment varied according to the case. He mentioned examples such as Juha Sipilä's shove, the leftist flag falling in the wind, and a sticker being placed on someone's back. The writer assessed that based on the same reasoning, there would have been 200,000 assaults during riots, but added that this was a different matter now. #pahoinpitely #toleranssi #politiikka (translated)

Jocka Träskbäck wrote to Antti and Tyt that Minister of Defense Häkkänen received the confidence of Parliament by a vote of 114–61, which he claimed was more than the trust granted to the government. He described the hastily prepared confidence vote as the most embarrassing farce of the electoral term and a worthless play, which he argued revealed more to Finns than the organizers had intended. #Suomi #Politiikka #Hallitus (translated)

The Greens have started their election campaign. -All new immigration laws will be repealed. -50 thousand new doctors and engineers allowed into the country per year. -Drivers can pay the costs that have risen for those lounging on the couch directly to their accounts from fuel taxes. At this point, I have to wonder who they are speaking to and who will vote with these provisions? #vaalit #politiikka #Suomi (translated)

How can anyone be so naive? After all the ugly figures and headlines? The Greens claim that almost all of the tightening measures we've implemented regarding immigration would be reversed. So, stricter requirements that an immigrant must be employed, be self-sufficient, and live respectably in Finland will be thrown in the trash. Who do they think will arrive in Finland if we cannot even require these basic things from the newcomers? Moreover, the Greens propose increasing net immigration to 40,000–45,000 newcomers every year. That would be more and faster immigration than ever in Finnish history. Every year. The Greens even propose granting more rights, services, and special treatment to those residing illegally in Finland. The most absurd is the proposal to legalize asylum seekers who arrived between 2015-2018, who, despite numerous negative decisions, still reside illegally in Finland. So, whether you received asylum or not, the Greens guarantee the right to stay here. A party that presents such ideas is likely to rise to power if the leftist parties win the elections. Finland cannot afford this. Neither in euros nor in the citizens' tolerance. The less is required from immigration, the more problems it brings along. Therefore, a strict stance on immigration is in the interest of Finland and Finns. #maahanmuutto #Suomi #politiikka (translated)
