<div>Good news from Barcelona! This week we just got officialized,
so we are on time to run for the Catalan Parliament elections,
in one month and a half (Nov 29th). To enter the Parliament we
need 80-90k votes (3%), that would give us 3 seats.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We lost a lot of time due to excessive bureaucracy. Among
other things, we had to change the name (from "Partit Pirata" to
"Pirates de Catalunya"). But well, we don't have time to
complain, as we're working really hard to meet the deadlines.
After <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://pirata.cat/bloc/?p=364" target="_blank">getting
the official status</a>, we <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://pirata.cat/bloc/?p=407" target="_blank">opened
the affiliation</a>, published <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://pirata.cat/bloc/?page_id=425" target="_blank">the
electoral programme</a> and in a few days we will <a
moz-do-not-send="true" href="https://xifrat.pirata.cat/"
target="_blank">open the Direct Democracy system</a> (a tuned
IdeaTorrent ;)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Anyway, I'll ask you for a favor: please promote us!</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Our twitter/facebook accounts are less than 2 months old, but
quite big compared to the other Catalan political parties:</div>
<div>- <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://socvot.dario.im/facebook" target="_blank">http://socvot.dario.im/facebook</a>
(1st has 6604 fans, we have 2696)</div>
<div>- <a moz-do-not-send="true"

(1st has 2075 fans, we have 494)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Compared to the other pirate parties, and given that in
Catalonia we are ~7 million, our numbers are not bad at all:</div>

<div><br>

<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm asking you to post our link in your Facebook wall:</div>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; border-left: 1px solid
rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
Support <a moz-do-not-send="true"

<div><br>
</div>
<div>Of course, you are welcome to post your links on our wall ;)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>On Twitter, please make a "Follow Friday" to us. Something
like:</div>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px; border-left: 1px solid
rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
#FF @partit_pirata <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://pirata.cat" target="_blank">http://pirata.cat</a></blockquote>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Finally, two questions:</div>
<div>- How to we get @IntPirateNews to follow @partit_pirata? Who
manages it?</div>
<div>
- It would be GREAT for us to be the Pirate Party of the week
when we start our electoral campaign, in a few weeks. Who should
we ask for it?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Should you propose any other way of helping us, we would be
most grateful :)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Cheers!</div>
