You can follow the results for all the 27 memberstats on <a href="http://www.val2009-resultat.eu/" target="_blank">www.val2009-resultat.eu</a> (but I don't think the language of the site will be in english). The site will be activated on Sunday at 6 pm. The first swedish results will be presented at 10 pm.<br>

<br>
Has every party started their press releases?<br>
It might sound a little like 'climbing on the back' of the hard work of<br>
both Piratpartiet and piratenpartei, but please, don't take it as suhc.<br>
<br>
This will, we hope, give press and impetus to parties everywhere, and we<br>
need to capitalize on it. We need to have releases ready to go, not just<br>
for the international media, but to give local media a place to look for<br>
local voices, and more importantly, to give editors and journalists<br>
maximum opportunity to write stories, by giving them multiple angles,<br>
and also trying to cover things in local languages. While The Times, or<br>
Le Monde can give their 'pirates hit Brussels' stories, the Podunk<br>
Gazzette, or Daily Smalltown can talk about their local parties, and how<br>
their issues hope to get a wider view, which gets more people interested<br>
etc.<br>
<br>
There are 4 realistic outcomes:<br>
Germany and Sweden win seats<br>
Germany wins seats but Sweden doesn't<br>
Sweden wins and Germany doesn't<br>
Neither Germany or Sweden wins seats.<br>
<br>
So, we need to have 4 separate press releases ready to go. Ideally these<br>
should be done by Saturday night.<br>
<br>
I'm open to direction from both the Swedish and German teams on the<br>
focus of the releases, but I'd suggest a broad address of all 3 main<br>
pillars of the pirate creed, without being overly specific.<br>
<br>
If anyone wants any help, I'll be around (I hope) tomorrow and all<br>
weekend, and as always, in #ppi on IRC.<br>
