The 200 members of the Parliament of Finland (Eduskunta) are elected using open list proportional representation in 13 multi-member constituencies, with seats allocated according to the D'Hondt method. The number of elected representatives is proportional to the population in the district six months prior to the elections. Åland has a single member electoral district and its own party system.[4][5]
