The German word "wählen" can mean
- to pick, to choose
- to elect
- to dial
The German word "Null" can mean
- zero
- loser, jerk

So, someone saying "Ich habe die Null gewählt" either means
- "I've dialed zero."
Or
- "I voted for that idiot."

Enjoy our language!

@jensclasen This is (very partly) why I love discovering the German language via Einstürzende Neubauten's lyrics.

P.s. I don't know German, only what I've learned through Blixa Bargeld and a few other sources.
