[pp.int.general] Time to Hijack a poll for Pirate Party Amsterdam

[Zbigniew Łukasiak]

We have a similar situation. I am starting in primary elections for
the European Parliament from the list of Direct Democracy. But it
seems that the voting application they wrote is not exactly what we
expected - it is tightly connected with Facebook and on many devices
it does not let you vote without a Facebook or Google Plus account.
This is eliminating many votes from our supporters who hate Facebook.

So I would ask all of you (who are from European Union) to vote for
me: http://wybory.db.org.pl/prawybory/4/glosuj/k52/ Just click
'Głosuj!' at the bottom of the page - this is a direct link for a vote
for me.

What I ask for here is actually what they agreed for - that all
Europeans can vote in these primaries. I did not want to use this  -
but we are loosing much good faith of our supporters because of Direct
Democracy Facebook love - so I have to react.

Cheers,
Zbigniew Łukasiak
