Finland’s results in the European election bucked a continent-wide trend of rising support for parties on the outer fringe of right-wing politics, with the Left Alliance and the National Coalition winning big at the expense of the nationalist Finns Party.

Leftist leader Li Andersson received more votes than any other candidate has ever received in a European election.

    God I’m sick of explaining this.

    If everyone voted for the left-most party, and the right had no votes, the right would move towards the left, pushing the dems along with them.

    Not surprisingly, when the country votes left your politics moves left.

    Comments like this are the reason why the dems are not the bastion of leftism you so desire.
