[Chapter-delegates] Internet Pirate Bay and EU P elections

[Tommi Karttaavi]

Hi,

Yes, it seems that they even were close to getting two seats.

BTW, the Swedish Pirate Party and the Pirate Bay website are not
directly affiliated.

The Finnish Pirate Party just registered as an official political party
and is going to participate the 2011 parliamentary elections (I am not a
member).

Regards,

Tommi
