Voting in institutions

Special advance voting locations in Finland include hospitals, 24-hour care facilities and other social welfare units designated by decision of the municipal government (for example, nursing homes, nursing homes and service homes), as well as penal institutions.

The election committee appointed by the municipal government will arrive at each facility in the municipality to conduct voting on at least one and at most four days during the early voting period (May 26 – June 8, 2021).

Only persons being treated in or admitted to institutions may vote. Others, such as the institution's staff, do not have the right to vote in the institutional vote.

Institutional voting is conducted in the same way as general advance voting.
