HS gallup|Sdp’s support has last been this high since the beginning of 2016. The coalition decreased by 1.2 percentage points to 19.4 percent.
The coalition support fell to its lowest point this election season, according to a recent HS-gallup. At the same time, Sdp, Perussuomalaiset and the center have become stronger.
Sdp’s support rose by 0.8 percentage points to 22.8 percent compared to the previous survey conducted in September. The coalition, on the other hand, fell by 1.2 percentage points to 19.4 percent.

The combined support of the Coalition, Basic Finns, Rkp and Christian Democrats is therefore almost six percentage points lower than the result of the spring 2023 parliamentary elections. The combined support of the governing parties was 49.4 percent in the elections.
Antti Kaikkonen was elected chairman of the center in June, and the party has strengthened somewhat. Its support seems to have stabilized at just over 12 percent.
The support of the Left Alliance rose slightly and that of the Greens fell. The support for both is about eight percent.
Although Sdp chairman Antti Lindtman there is criticized from lack of color and too much caution, the party’s support is now higher than ever before his predecessor Sanna Marini at the time.
The peaks of Marin’s presidency were seen in the corona spring in May 2020, when Sdp’s support was 22.1 percent.
During Lindtman’s term, the previous peak of Sdp’s support was in May 2023, when 22.7 percent would have voted for Sdp. So now we went a bit more than that to 22.8 percent.
You have to go back quite far in the historical data of the HS-galup to find such a high level of support for the Sdp. This was last found in January 2016, when Sdp’s support was the same 22.8 percent. He was the chairman then Antti Rinne.
The previous time similar readings were seen in February 2007, when Sdp’s support was 23.5 percent. At that time, Sdp was in charge Eero Heinäluoma.

Basic Finns has lost support in all age groups – but most among the middle-aged. It now has more than 44,000 fewer supporters in the 55-64 age group compared to the parliamentary elections.
The coalition, on the other hand, has lost the most in the over 65 age group.
The majority of Sdp’s supporters are women. However, it is interesting that after the parliamentary elections, it has especially gained more male supporters.
