Background
The incumbent government was formed by a three party coalition, composed of the Centre Party, Finns Party and National Coalition Party.[3] On 28 May 2015, the parliament elected Juha Sipilä as prime minister by a vote of 128–62.[4]
Electoral system
The 200 members of the Eduskunta are elected using proportional representation in 13 multi-member constituencies, with seats allocated according to the d'Hondt method.

Graphical summary
Poll results
Poll results are listed in the table below in reverse chronological order, showing the most recent first. The highest percentage figure in each poll is displayed in bold, and the background shaded in the leading party's colour. In the instance that there is a tie, then no figure is shaded. The table uses the date the survey's fieldwork was done, as opposed to the date of publication. However, if that date is unknown, the date of publication will be given instead.
The Sipilä Cabinet is composed of the top three parties from the previous election: Centre (Kesk), National Coalition (Kok) and Finns (PS) parties.
