A 2007 survey, on the other hand, indicated that the Åland Centre would remain the largest party in the Lagting.

Ultimately, two of the parties in the Landskapstyrelse, Moderates of Åland and the Åland Social Democrats, incurred heavy losses, with the Social Democrat representation in the Lagting being cut in half and Freeminded Co-operation falling below 10% of the votes for the first time in the party's history.

[3] The significant losses for the Moderates of Åland and the Social Democrats can be partially explained by discontent with the government, as well as the retirements of popular members of the Lagting, Harriet Lindeman (Moderates of Åland) and Lasse Wiklöf (Social Democrats).

The election also marked the return of former Åland member of the Finnish parliament and member of the Lagting Gunnar Jansson for the Liberals, who became the most popular candidate with 745 votes cast for him, or 5.6% of all votes cast in the election.

Former member of the Lagting, Lantråd (premier of the government of Åland) and recently retired member of the Finnish parliament, Roger Jansson (Moderates of Åland), while not receiving as many votes as Gunnar Jansson, was also elected.
