In colorful costumes, Pirate Party registers for March election
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleThe Pirate Party registers its electoral slate ahead of March’s election.
Filing the party’s papers with the Central Elections Committee in the Knesset, party chairman Noam Kuzar, wearing a tricorn hat, says his party represents “all the people who think the current public discourse doesn’t represent them.”
The party registers its full name as “The Pirate Party: Click Here,” because “in the next election, after we are elected, you will be able to vote by internet. In fact, you will be able to vote by internet for each law,” Kuzar says.
The party has run in every Israeli election for the last 15 years. It has yet to win a seat in the Knesset.
