EU Parliament Elections

[Huckleberry Finn]

Well, according to the Wahlomat (www.wahlomat.de) the order of the grade of my identification with the European policies of the several political parties in Germany is as follows:

1. Greens
2. FDP
3. SPD
4. CDU
5. CSU
6. PDS

That's odd.
I got
1 Greens
2 PDS
3 SPD
4 CDU
5 FDP
6 CSU
In 2002 I always got PDS ahead, but I voted Green anyways. And I will do so now, too.

ARE YOU THAT LEFTIST?? PDS? WHY HELL?

*Loading his rifle*

I will vote conservatives (National Coalition Party) as always. Probably for one ultra libertarian chick who is very pro EU, pro NATO membership and pro USA. It's kind of protest vote I think. She is very hated by Left, about my age and already member of European Parliament.

My mother votes PDS.

Mothers are holy. But why does she vote for them?

Well... um... good question. She´s not here, otherwise I could ask her.

She´s not a communist, if you thought that. I think most PDS voters aren´t. Aside from being a pacifist (she usually voted for the Greens until 1999, when they backed the NATO intevention in the Kosovo) I suppose she votes for the PDS for the same reason most other PDS voters go for that particular political party: East Germans who are pissed off by the "West German-dominated" Federal republic because their home country (although they disagreed with its political elite) was "annexed" in 1990.

The PDS presents itself as party, which is pursuing "East German interests". Anyway, I think it has a lot to do with psychology. I do not pretend to fully understand it either. I was still a child when the wall came down and my political socialication took place mainly during the 1990ies after the re-unification. Well, sometimes I´m successful in persuading her to vote for SPD or the Greens.

My political socialisation took place in late 1980's when the wall came down. It's probably most important reason why I become the conservative. I think that my generation (born in early 70's) is fairly conservative because of collapse of communism.

EPP

Hieman outo yhdistelmä. RKP, KESK, SKP?? Minulle tulee aina Kokoomus. Joskus mukana RKP, LIB. Aion äänestää Piia-Noora Kauppia. Siinä on mukana ripaus protestia demari hegemoniaa vastaan.
