In 1914, the Russian government decided to suspend the Finnish Parliament for the duration of World War I. Campaign Finnish voters' growing frustration with Parliament's performance was reflected by the low voter turnout; the Social Democrats and Agrarians, championing the cause of poor workers and farmers, kept gaining votes at the expense of the Old Finns, whose main concern was the passive defence of Finland's self-government. They disagreed on the social and economic policies, and thus did not formulate very clear positions on them.Seppo Zetterberg et al (2008) A Small Giant of the Finnish History WSOJAllan Tiitta and Seppo Zetterberg (1992) Finland Through the Ages Reader's Digest Results File:1913 Eduskunta.svg Social Democratic Party 312214 90 +4 Finnish Party 143982 38 –5 Young Finnish Party 102313 29 +1 Swedish People's Party 94672 25 –1 Agrarian League 56977 18 +2 Christian Workers' Union 12850 0 –1 Others 1296 0 – 0 6345 1430135 Mackie & RoseThomas T Mackie & Richard Rose (1991) The International Almanac of Electoral History, Macmillan, p243 (vote figures) References Category:Parliamentary elections in Finland Parliament Finland
