The Centre Party 22.6%
Coalition (conservative) 17%
Greens 13.1 %

The Social Democrats did not do well.

The Finnish Communist Party got 4.4%

And 40% undecided/uninterested?

Re: Finnish Youth Vote (none / 1)

The full results are out:
SDP: 12.0%
Left Alliance: 8.4%
True Finns: 7.7%
Christian Democrats: 6.9%
Communists: 4.4%
Swedish People's Party: 2.7%

Those polled were all under the age of 18 and thus not eligible to vote. The Swedes are eager to point out that their relatively meager showing is due to a very small number of Swedish language schools participating.
