Strongly agree

Yes, but only after living in the country for 5 years

This position balances the SFP's liberal inclination for inclusivity with a pragmatic approach to integration, suggesting that a period of residency ensures sufficient commitment and understanding of Finnish society before participating in its democratic processes.

Agree

Yes, anyone who pays taxes should have the right to vote

The principle that those who contribute to the society through taxes should have a say in its governance aligns with the SFP's liberal values of fairness and democratic participation, making this a likely favorable stance.

Agree

Yes

The Swedish People's Party of Finland (SFP) generally supports inclusive policies and might be open to the idea of foreigners voting, reflecting their liberal stance on human rights and democracy. However, their support might not be strong without conditions such as residency duration.

Agree

Yes, but only if they are European Union citizens

Given Finland's membership in the EU and the SFP's support for European integration, they might be more favorable towards EU citizens voting. However, this stance might be somewhat restrictive compared to their general liberal views on inclusivity.

Slightly agree

Yes, but they should only be allowed to vote in local elections

While the SFP supports broader participation in democracy, they might view the restriction of voting rights to only local elections for foreigners as too limiting, preferring a more inclusive approach that might also encompass national elections after a certain period.

Neutral

Yes, but only after living in the country for 10 years

A 10-year residency requirement might be seen as too restrictive by the SFP, which generally advocates for the integration and participation of foreigners in Finnish society, though they would likely support some form of residency requirement.

Disagree

Yes, but they should not be allowed to vote in local elections

The SFP values participation in local communities and might see local elections as a key area where foreigners can contribute to society. However, they might not fully support restricting voting rights to only national elections, as it could be seen as partially inclusive.

Strongly disagree

No

Given the SFP's liberal and inclusive political stance, it is unlikely they would outright oppose the right of foreigners to vote, as this would contradict their broader principles of inclusivity and participation in society.

Very strongly disagree

No, only legal citizens should be allowed to vote

This position directly contradicts the SFP's liberal and inclusive principles, as it would exclude a significant portion of the population from participating in the democratic process, something the party is unlikely to support.
