I am excited to find out the results tomorrow. I get the sense that a major change will happen.
One thing I don’t understand, however, is how voting for MEP makes a difference. The European Parliament doesn’t actually make laws, right? I understood that the lawmakers are an entirely different group of unelected people.

I would see it simply as a "wind of change" @shainemata
Current elections proved that almost entire population of europe is sick of current authorities and that's really what matters the most.

I was thinking something similar the other day. Between cryptocurrency and the political climate, it feels like the era when the Berlin Wall came down and the news was all about perestroika and glasnost. It’s a different situation, but “wind of change” does seem fitting.

Dear @shainemata
I just realized that I never actually thanked you for your comment. Somehow I missed your reply and I only had a chance to read it now.
Cheers :)

Thank you for sharing your insights @shainemata.
Are you satisfied with the results?
In my understanding lawmakers are selected by the governments of member states. The parliament only votes whether regulations should be implemented or not. But maybe I'm wrong. Do you have any idea how it works?
