Marine Le Pen - DONE

[FecalFace]

Suck on it.

 

[Ifallalot]

Done? She's only down by 2% of the vote and there's a runoff on May 7.

Can I just comment how great they have it figured out in other countries where voting is done on the weekend instead of random workdays?

Yup.

Should be a voting holiday.

None of this "Vote Early!" crap.

Absolutely. Australia has it figured out. Voting is mandatory as well

The absence in the runoff of candidates from either the mainstream left Socialists or the right-wing Republicans party — the two main groups that have governed post-war France — also marked a seismic shift in the French political landscape.

Relative to where they started this is hardly a stinging loss for her party. It's the formerly significant parties they've overtaken who actually got their asses kicked.

There are pundits who are commenting that this is what's significant about this election, regardless of the outcome. Her party's showing in this election will force the continued discussion about the merits of globalization and immigration.

The other parties probably will coalesce behind her opposition, but their vote against her isn't necessarily a vote for Macron as such.

BTW, she lost because of the patriarchy, right?

It doesn't hurt to celebrate the fascist downfall early.

The runoff is between only 2 candidates, instead of 11.

Where do you think Fillon's and Mélenchon's votes are going to go?
They currently carry 40% of the total vote.

No, she lost because of the Pizza Gate.

LOL

It looks to me like the consensus in support of the United States of Germany's 4th Reich is showing some cracks.

With two anti-globalisation candidates whose policies could break up the European Union among the four frontrunners, the vote is of major significance to the international political status quo and to investment markets.

Coming after the election of Donald Trump as president of the United States and after the 'Brexit' decision of British voters to quit the EU, few experts dare rule out a shock, and all of the likely outcomes will usher in a period of political uncertainty in France.

Polls make centrist and pro-European Emmanuel Macron the favourite, but he has no established party of his own and is a relatively unknown political quantity.

His three close rivals, according to voting surveys, are the anti-EU, anti-immigration National Front leader Marine Le Pen, who would dump the euro currency and return to national ones, far-left candidate Jean-Luc Melenchon, who wants France to rip up international trade treaties and quit NATO, and the conservative Francois Fillon, whose reputation has been sullied by a nepotism scandal.

"The election of either Le Pen or Melenchon would put Paris on a fast-track collision course with (EU officials in) Brussels)," said James Shields, professor of French politics at Aston University in Britain.

"The election of Marine Le Pen would make Brexit look trivial by comparison."

Although Le Pen is in second place behind Macron in the second round, she is seen by pollsters as unlikely to win in the second. Melenchon, by contrast, can win the presidency according to some scenarios.

Mélenchon is out dummy.

Stop playing an expert on European politics.

Mandatory voting is a bad thing.

No one she be compelled by law to vote. If you don't like any of the candidates, you shouldn't have to vote.

That's why I don't vote all that much.

 

[FecalFace]

I'm quoting irrelevant, out of date articles.

Yes, yes you are.

Then go to the booth and write-in your name. Since you have it all figured out.

Civic duties are so hard.

Counting isn't over yet, but at any rate his chances for winning are just a tangent in that article. But of course that would be the one angle you fixate on as a means of completely dismissing the rest.
