Anyone got any polls?

The best I can find (having to rely on the Swedish newspapers in Finland) only gives polls for the three largest parties.
Kesk (Centre Party) 23,3 %
SPD 22,6 %
Kok (Coalition) 22,1 %

Nothing about the small parties. This could give the Finns a Kesk + Kok + SFP (Swedish PP) government (SFP has been in every government since 1979).

The party has traditionally been very supportive for non decentralisation

Don't you mean either for decentralization or non-centralization?

Finnish politics are the most boring in the world. Well, not really, there is Switzerland too, of course. But apart from them. I will still follow it a little though.

Last minute spike by the coalition there.
Anyone know how this will translate in terms of seats?

So what's the most likely outcome? Another coalition between the FC, FSDP and SPPF?

The greens are center right?
Anyway, what's the need to bring the greens into it, the others have an absolute majority without them.

Well, politically correct it would be more like a Liberal-Center-Right Coalition, because while the NCP is on the liberal-right side, the Greens are left, the Centre Party is centrist-liberal and the SPP is liberal-right.
