Question: during Finnish presidential election, 1946 the parliament passed a law that enabled what  Finnish military leader and statesman born in 1867 to serve a six-year term

<P0-S0> Indirect presidential elections were held in Finland in 1946. <P0-S1>  In 1944 the Parliament had passed a law that enabled Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim to serve a six-year term. <P0-S2>  However, he resigned on 4 March 1946, giving as his reason his declining health and his view that the tasks he had been selected to carry out had been accomplished. <P0-S3>  An election was held in Parliament to appoint his successor. <P0-S4>  Juho Kusti Paasikivi was elected with 159 of the 200 votes. <SEP> <P1-S0>  Svinhufvud's razor-thin victory required Niukkanen's arm-twisting tactics, whereby he pressured all the Agrarian presidential electors to support Svinhufvud. <P1-S1>  810-816; Raimo Salokangas, "The Independent Republic" (Itsenäinen tasavalta), pgs. <P1-S2>  On 15 and 16 January the public elected presidential electors to an electoral college. <P1-S3>  242-245 (Relander), pgs. <P1-S4>  Speaker of the Finnish Parliament, Kyösti Kallio, held ideals similar to those of Ståhlberg, and he became the Agrarian presidential candidate. <P1-S5>  The turnout for the popular vote was 47.3%. <P1-S6>  This 69-year-old and slightly ailing conservative politician was considered by his supporters as a sufficiently bold, solid and patriotic man to re-unite the ideologically divided Finns. <P1-S7>  The Commander-in-Chief of the Civil Guards (a bourgeois voluntary defence organization), Major General Lauri Malmberg, announced in the Finnish Parliament that he would not guarantee order among the Civil Guards, if Ståhlberg was elected President. <P1-S8>  He was chosen as the Progressive presidential candidate. <P1-S9>  Helsinki: Finnish Literature Society / Suomalaisen kirjallisuuden seura, 2009, pgs. <P1-S10>  His pro-democracy supporters hoped that he could keep both right-wing extremists and left-wing extremists in check (see, for example, Sakari Virkkunen, Finland's Presidents I / Suomen presidentit I. Helsinki: Otava Ltd., 1994, pgs. <P1-S11>  The outgoing President, Lauri Kristian Relander, had lost the Agrarian presidential candidacy to Kallio, because he did not condemn the Lapua Movement as strongly as Kallio did, and a sufficient number of Agrarians believed that Kallio could control the Lapua Movement's extremists more effectively than Relander. <P1-S12>  This presidential election was held during an ideologically, politically, socially and economically tense time. <P1-S13>  Former President K.J. Ståhlberg, a champion of democracy, parliamentarism and the rule of law, had been briefly kidnapped by some activists of the Lapua Movement with his wife in October 1930. <P1-S14>  It wanted to help elect a President who would also strongly oppose the Social Democrats and moderate bourgeois parties, such as the Progressives. <SEP> <P2-S0> Mannerheimintie (Swedish: "Mannerheimvägen" ), named after the Finnish military leader and statesman Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim, is the main street of Helsinki, Finland. <P2-S1>  It was originally named Heikinkatu (Swedish: "Henriksgatan" ), after Robert Henrik Rehbinder, but was renamed after the Winter War. <P2-S2>  The change of name was also suitable due to Mannerheim having paraded in along that road during the Finnish Civil War (1918), after German forces allied with Mannerheim's Finnish forces had retaken the city. <P2-S3>  That event is also portrayed in the landmark statue of Mannerheim sitting horseback. <P2-S4>  The statue is located along the Mannerheimintie just outside the modern arts museum Kiasma. <SEP> <P3-S0> Baron Carl Gustaf Emil Mannerheim (] ; 4 June 1867 – 27 January 1951) was a Finnish military leader and statesman. <P3-S1>  Mannerheim served as the military leader of the Whites in the Finnish Civil War, Regent of Finland (1918–1919), commander-in-chief of Finland's defence forces during World War II, Marshal of Finland, and the sixth president of Finland (1944–1946).
