The Finnish name of the district

The Finnish name of electoral district 2 is Uusimaa [1]. Loser12user (talk) 08:31, 17 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Uusimaa is the nominative form, while Uudenmaan is the genitive, here used to indicate association. It cannot be used alone, but needs to be combined with "electoral district", Uudenmaan vaalipiiri. Compare with the article title and the first sentence in fi:Uudenmaan maakunta.
