Vote for pirates if you can

I have not yet decided which party to vote for in the upcoming election of the EU parliament. I would like to vote for the Pirate Party but I am not sure that they are going to be registered as an official party before the election. I did indeed sign a supporter card but 5000 citizens need to do the same before a party is registered.

I became a supporter of the Pirate Party in Finland by reading the blog of Rick Falkvinge, the Pirate Party leader in Sweden. He tends to make sense about taking a common sense responsibility of the society you happen to live in. Which is why I ask you to vote for a Pirate Party if you have that option.
