Stallbrook Pirate Party

The Stallbrook Pirate Party is the local branch of the U.S. Pirate Party, which is in turn part of a growing international political movement which began in Sweden. The name "Pirates" comes from their original concerns over copyright and patent law reform, although their program has expanded to include opposition to abuses by both big government and big business, thus earning them the label of "left-libertarian". In the city of Stallbrook, genderqueer Pirate activist D.G. Falco won the third district seat of the City Council in the 2015 municipal elections, gaining a plurality over ten other candidates. In the 2019 elections, Falco won re-election and was joined by Warren Foyle winning an at-large seat. Falco and Foyle would win re-election in 2023 and be joined by Corey Long from the eighth district, making the Pirates the third-largest party in the City Council, and the second-largest group in the Council's Progressive Caucus.
