Ok, time for another update.<br>
<br>
I would like to know<br>
-which parties are IN and qualified for the election<br>
-Which parties are not yet qualified for the election that wish to participate.<br>

Finland - not yet qualified, pursuing qualification is the current number one priority.<br>
<br>
We are collecting signatures to register as a party before we need to report our candidates.<br>
At the moment we roughly the have (at least) 2800 signatures out of 5000 needed, that is 56%. We intend to have the rest within one and a half month to leave time for the slow process of processing our application so we get registered before the deadline for presenting candidates hits us.<br>
<br>
Technical details:<br>
We've been collecting signatures for about 3-4 months and intend to (somehow) get them all together within one and a half month. If we do not have them by then, our participation is in jeopardy since it takes some months for the government officials to process the signatures and sabotage would be less noticeable - sabotage in the sense some official might just decide to postpone the process a couple of weeks - past the electoral deadline. Our registration as a party overall is not jeopardized, as we would still have more than half a year to collect signatures.<div>
