    Does voting for a party like that even help anything? I’m asking because my voting experience is US, and everyone knows how many parties matter here. So I’m curious.

      It does a bit, since every party will be represented in the European council based on the number of votes they have. It’s not an election where the winner takes all.

      I think the pirates had one or two representatives in the council, which is enough to start debates and make proposals. They obviously can’t push anything through by themselves.
