History

[edit]

Savo-Karelia was established in 2013 by the merger of North Karelia and North Savo districts.[4][5] The municipalities of Heinävesi and Joroinen were transferred from Southeast Finland to Savo-Karelia in 2021.[6]

Electoral system

[edit]

Savo-Karelia currently elects 15 of the 200 members of the Parliament of Finland using the open party-list proportional representation electoral system.[7][8] Parties may form electoral alliances with each other to pool their votes and increase their chances of winning seats.[9][10] However, the number of candidates nominated by an electoral alliance may not exceed the maximum number of candidates that a single party may nominate.[11] Seats are allocated using the D'Hondt method.[12][13]
