The more I've been following world news, the more clear it becomes that a fair, orderly democracy should never be taken for granted. It is something which needs to be maintained and taken care of. Sure, our current system in Finland is not fully perfect, but still to me it seems a lot better than the alternatives we happen to have in some nearby countries. So I'm happy to volunteer for a day to keep the democracy alive. It is going to be a rather full day, from 8am to 10pm or something, depending on how long it takes to count the votes. And, for foreign readers - in Finland we don't have any computerized voting system, mainly to maximize the security and reliability of the voting system. So ballots are counted manually, with representatives of all political parties constantly present, all calculations double-checked by different persons, and the number of ballots counted and checked against the count of people who voted. And once the local board has counted all the votes, they will later on be re-checked by another group of people. The system is so designed that cheating even a single vote would be rather difficult, and any large scale manipulation is next to impossible.
