Indeed, I was liveblogging it (or trying to)
http://falkvinge.net/2012/03/25/live-piratenparei-election-results-in-saarland/
I'm hoping that next time, Schleswig-Holstein, there will be a better
system set up (because I had the wild idea to do this yesterday, and
then had to go out until 7am european time, and overslept (which is why
I started late)
If I can get some help for next time, would be amazingly good!
