Åland is represented by a single seat in the Parliament of Finland. Whilst the rest of Parliament is elected by proportional representation in multi-member constituencies, the islands have a single-member constituency., in effect making elections for Åland's representative to Parliament a first-past-the-post (FPTP) election. In the event the Åland seat becomes vacant, a replacement is chosen as in other electoral districts (using the d'Hondt method), with one key difference: if a replacement is not available, a new election for the seat must be held as soon as possible. During other elections, such as presidential elections or elections for the European Parliament, the entire country of Finland, including Åland, forms a single electoral district.

  • Trots att Åland har ett eget parlament och egen lagstiftningsbehörighet på många områden har Åland en representant i Finlands riksdag. Riksdagsledamoten övervakar att riksmyndigheterna uppfyller sin del av självstyrelseuppgörelsen och tillvaratar Ålands intressen inom utrikesförvaltningen, statsbeskattningen, domstolarna, tullväsendet och större delen av civil- och straffrätten. Dessutom brukar Ålands riksdagsledamot engagera sig i för Åland viktiga frågor, som språkfrågan och sjöfartspolitiken. (sv)
