The presidential race (the election is on January 28, mind) enters the final stretch. Thus far, it has seemed like the race would go down to two amiable liberals – center-right Alexander Stubb from the ruling National Coalition and the center-left Pekka Haavisto from the Greens. Lately, the Finns Party candidate Jussi Halla-aho, who has effectively courted controversy to stay in the eye of the media, has been rising, though it is unclear if this would be enough to clear the considerable advantage of the two main candidates, and Olli Rehn from the Centre also has his supporters. I’m intending to write a bit more on this in English before the election, though.
EDIT: Nevermind the comments I posted earlier but decided to now nuke. I guess I didn't post them in the best or most sober of mindsets, and to be frank, I had trouble making sense of them in part myself. Sori siitä!
Well, I'm looking forward to anything you have to write about Jussi Halla-aho.
Also, isn't the obvious solution to the problem at the border to make skiing incredibly difficult from an athletic perspective, but also pass legislation that says any immigrant who survives is entitled to citizenship and a spot on Finland's Olympic team?
