EU Parliament Elections

[Gustaf]

Always a bit on the late side, but took the test

Much agreement:
1. GUE/NGL (Good thing since I'm voting for them tomorrow)
2. European Greens
3. PES
4. ELDR

Little Agreement:

5. EDD
6. UEN
7. EPP

It fits, lucky me. (Last EP-election, I did a Danish test and hit spot on the person I already wanted to vote for!!!)

What GUE/NGL party? Not folkbevaegelsen I gather, but socialistiske venstre?

Don't worry, of course i'm voting Socialistisk Folkeparti (or Socialist Peoples Party , which sounds like a hardcore communist party from Vietnam or DDR ) FB er loonies

I don't know about worrying, I'd probably vote FB over SF...

Ah, yes socialistisk folkeparti...I think I mixed them up with the Norwegian counterpart...should have remembered that all Danish parties have folkeparti in their names.

Yes most have, but our christian party has just changed its name from Kristelig Folkeparti (Christian Peoples Party) to Kristendemokraterne (Christian Democrats) and has got a lovely purple colour as their party colour
- And jurging by our statements on this forum I think that you would vote Junibevægelsen (June Movement) if you had the change. FB are way to left wing

Hehe...purple?

Yes, my vote would go to one of the 2 (?) conservatives on Junibevaegelsn's ballot. I was just saying that out of the 2 above mentioned parties, I would probably rather vote FB...

Try DR's election page and tell me who you hit. Lets see if you are right about that FB/JB-thing

Sure. Back in aminute...

The tension is killing me......

This was a definite shocker...I wonder if I misunderstood some of the Danish?

It seems like I'm an FB-voter then...

Aparently. I don't know any of the FB-people, but by looking at Rina Ronja Kari http://rina.folkebevaegelsen.dk/ I can see that she is very leftwing (Det frie Gymnasium is a left wing Mecca) but she is almost your age

Well...that's good I guess...

Just kidding Have a pleasant election tomorrow. Let's see is Folkebevægelsen gets a mandate. It does not look that good for them in the polls

Well, as long as Junilistan gets in, I'm happy. have to get up at 7 or 6.45 tomorrow to hand out ballots... *yawn*

Grattis, Gustaf! Seems like your family suddenly has three seats in the EU parliament

Gotten over it now? It seems like Maria Carlshamre will beat Schmidt for the 2nd FP-seat, are you happy about that? I am, she seems less enthusiastic about the union than him.

Sure, I've gotten over it... there were nice things about the election too, such as the social dems getting 24%! Feels good! When it comes to Carlshamre or Schmidt I don't really care, but I would prefer Schmidt since he has the routine necessary to accomplish something. Sending all these non-political people to Brussels won't solve much

Typical FP-thinking... I think it's better for people with real competence and experience, rather than power-hungry bureacrats to go into politics...
