The SDP formed a coalition government with the Centre Party, the Green League, the Left Alliance, and the Swedish People's Party following the election. Antti Rinne, a member of the SDP, was chosen Finland's prime minister, however he resigned in December 2019 owing to a dispute over the salaries of postal workers.
