Tulospäivä

Tulospäivä, also known as "result day" in English, is a significant event in the context of the Finnish presidential election. It refers to the day when the final results of the election are announced. The election is held every six years, and the president serves a single six-year term. The election process involves a two-round system, where if no candidate receives more than 50% of the votes in the first round, a second round is held between the two candidates with the most votes.

The election is conducted by the Finnish Parliament, which also elects the president. The candidates must be nominated by at least 20 members of the Parliament and have the support of at least 100 citizens. The election is held in secret, and the votes are counted by the Parliament's election committee. The results are then announced on tulospäivä, typically a few days after the election.

The president of Finland holds a ceremonial role, with limited executive powers. The president's duties include opening the Parliament's sessions, signing laws into effect, and representing Finland internationally. The president is also the commander-in-chief of the Finnish Defence Forces. The role of the president is largely ceremonial, and the actual governance of the country is carried out by the government, which is led by the prime minister.

Tulospäivä is an important day for the Finnish political landscape, as it marks the beginning of a new presidential term. The results of the election can have significant implications for the country's political and social landscape, as the president plays a role in shaping the national agenda and representing the country on the international stage. The election process is conducted with a high degree of transparency and fairness, ensuring that the will of the people is accurately reflected in the results.
