Create a candidate page for the parliamentary elections

TEK member, are you a candidate in the parliamentary elections? Make a candidate page for yourself! We want to promote candidates who are TEK members and help voters find TEK candidates in their electoral district easily.

All TEK members who are running in the parliamentary elections can create their own candidate page to tek.fi site. Voters can easily filter candidates by party and find a suitable candidate here. If you make your candidate page by 21 March, you will be included in the list of candidates in TEK magazine. The list of candidates in the TEK magazine is compiled based on the information on the candidates’ pages, so please remember to update your candidate number on your page by the same date.

Steps to create a candidate page:

  1. Log in to www.tek.fi at the top right of the site. Only members can create a page and further edit their own page.

  2. The form is divided into two parts, the candidate's basic information and the election-specific information.
    Candidate's basic information: Name, Municipality, Education, Occupation, Date of birth and Image (profile picture). The profile picture is displayed in a circle form on both the candidate card and the candidate page, so a square facial image works best. In addition, you can add links to your social media profiles or home pages, for example.
    Elections: Political party, Description, Election goals, Campaign links and Voting number.

  3. Fill in the basic information. If you have created a candidate page in previous elections, the basic information of your profile has been filled in automatically with the same information, but you can update and modify it. Click Add candidacy in the Elections section. Select Eduskuntavaalit 2027. Required information is marked with an asterisk in the field title. 

  4. Save the page. If you had a candidate page in the county elections, the municipal elections, the parliamentary elections or european elections, your page will automatically be published to the candidate listing page. If you are a new candidate, TEK will review your pages before we publish them.

  5. If you wish, you can later translate your page into Swedish and Finnish. If you do not translate your page, your candidate page will also be displayed in English on the summary pages in Finnish and Swedish.

  6. If you want to edit your page or update your information in the future, for example the voting number, you can do so via the link below.

The link for creating a candidate page is available here once you login to the site from the top right corner.
