2025 Finnish county elections
The 2025 Finnish county elections were held on 13 April 2025, the same day as the municipal elections. Representatives for the county councils were elected to decide the wellbeing services of each county. Residents of Helsinki were excluded from voting, as the city continued to be responsible for organizing health, social and rescue services in Helsinki. Åland was also excluded, as it was not affected by the health and social services reform.
Background
