The Pirates lost representation in the Senate. The only finalist for this party, Adéla Sucharda Šípová, did not defend her senatorial mandate in a duel with teacher Petr Paták (ODS). The Pirates' chairman, Zdeněk Hřib, regrets that their politician did not succeed. However, he welcomed the fact that the opposition parties remain in the upper chamber of parliament.
The Pirate Party's failure to leave the upper chamber is a great loss, says outgoing senator Adéla Sucharda Šípová. In the interview, she also takes stock of her six-year tenure in the Senate and assesses the fact that only one woman succeeded in the elections. "It is truly a warning issue."
Pirates clear out the Senate. Adéla Sucharda Šípová (46), who represented the Kladno region and part of Prague-West for six years, did not defend her mandate. In a close fight, she was defeated by the high school principal Petr Paták (41, ODS). The decision was made by only 723 votes. Pirates chairman Zdeněk Hřib (45) regrets the defeat, but at the same time appreciates the success of other candidates that his party supported.
The closely watched battle for the senatorial seat in Kladno ended in the defeat of the incumbent senator. Adéla Sucharda Šípová (for Piráty), who defended her mandate from 2020, lost in the second round to ODS candidate Petr Paták. In an interview for Aktuálně.cz, she assessed the reasons for the electoral failure and indicated her next steps for the future.
