Bundesvorsitzender der Piratenpartei über das Ergebnis der Wahl in Berlin Sebastian Nerz im Gespräch mit Silvia Engels Mit 8,9 Prozent ist die Piratenpartei bei den Berliner Abgeordnetenhauswahlen in den Landtag eingezogen. Seine Partei könne nun zeigen, dass man in der Lage sei, eine seriöse Politik auch in den Parlamenten zu machen, sagt der Bundesvorsitzende der Piratenpartei, Sebastian Nerz. Silvia Engels: Vor einigen Wochen hatten die Wahlforscher ihnen kaum Chancen eingeräumt, die Fünf-Prozent-Hürde im Berliner Abgeordnetenhaus zu überwinden. Gestern nun haben sie mit 8,9 Prozent der Wählerstimmen diese Grenze mit Leichtigkeit genommen. Die Rede ist von der Piratenpartei, einer Partei, die sich in Deutschland 2006 gegründet hat und die vor allem bislang mit dem Einsatz für ein Internet ohne Beschränkungen bekannt war. Am Telefon ist der Bundesvorsitzende der Piratenpartei, Sebastian Nerz. Guten

The biggest surprise of the vote was the smashing success of the Pirate Party – a motley outfit advocating civil liberties, as well as privacy and technology issues. The Pirates sailed easily into the state legislature with nine percent of the vote. "We'll see what happens in parliament when the citizens see a different type of politics," said Andreas Baum, the 33-year-old head of Berlin chapter of the Pirate Party. The upstart Pirates put the result of the Free Democrats (FDP) to shame, as the pro-business party won a paltry two percent and will no longer be represented in the state legislature.

Conversely in Germany – at the 2009 Bundestagswahl (my blog on that here), and at every Landtagswahl subsequently, the problem of how the SPD deals with the Left Party (Die Linke) rumbles on. Equally the SPD also still flirts with the idea of forming a grand coalition with the CDU, while support for The Greens continues to grow. Meanwhile in Berlin, the entry into the state parliament of the Pirate Party with 8.8% of the vote complicates matters still further.

Asked what kind of real change a small party in a state legislature could really bring about, Mr. Baum replied, “The very fact that these other parties are now asking themselves how we won these votes is already progress.”

BERLIN - With laptops open like shields against the encroaching cameramen, the young men resembled Peter Pan's Lost Boys more than Captain Hook's buccaneers when they were introduced Monday as Berlin's newest legislators: They are the members of the Pirate Party. Asked if they were just some chaotic troop of troublemakers, Christopher Lauer, newly voted in as a state lawmaker for the district of Pankow, replied with no lack of confidence, "You ought to wait for the first session in the house of representatives." By winning 8.9 percent of the vote in Sunday's election in this city-state, these political pirates surpassed - blew away, really - every expectation for what was supposed to be a fringe, one-issue party promoting Internet freedom. The Pirates so outstripped expectations that all 15 candidates on their list won seats - seats are doled out based in part on votes for a party rather than for an individual. Normally parties list far more candidates than could ever make it, because if they win more than they nominate, the seat must remain unfilled.

“They are absolutely not a joke party,” said Christoph Bieber, a professor of political science at the University of Duisburg-Essen. While there was certainly an element of protest in the unexpectedly large share of the votes the Pirates won, they were filling a real need for voters outside the political mainstream who felt unrepresented. “In the Internet, they have really found an underexploited theme that the other political parties are not dealing with,” Mr. Bieber said.
