Recent moves by Ms Le Pen to appeal to a wider audience seem to be working as she has removed herself as the leader of the Front National party, and rebranded her campaign with the new motto “Choose France”.

Pollster Harris Interactive, who correctly predicted the result of the first round, revealed a six points slip by Mr Macron since last Sunday.

Ms Le Pen said: “The country Mr Macron wants is no longer France; it's a space, a wasteland, a trading room where there are only consumers and producers.”

The latest polls were conducted prior to the announcement that defeated first round presidential candidate Nicolas Dupont-Aignan, would be Ms Le Pen’s prime minister if she wins the presidency....

France is governed by the big cities and does not have an electoral college to balance the vote.

Macron still holds a strong lead and the global socialists know that a loss in France (after Brexit and Trump) will accelerate the rejection of the establishment across the globe.

The global socialists know what this election represents and will do anything and everything to ensure Macron is installed.

It’s a BS headline. Macron is still ahead by almost 30 points according to the article.

At this rate Ms Le Pen will lose by only 24 points and that will send a message to all the euweenies.

She keeps muzzies out of France and takes France out of the EU. Italy will follow, leaving Germany to take care of the muzzies and pay the bills.

There is no way she can win.

All the establishment politicians are against her. The press is against her. The polls have her way down.

Why, the only people for her are the voters. She doesn't have a chance. Does any of this sound familiar?

“Macron holds a roughly 20-point advantage, at 60 percent support to Le Pen’s 40 percent, according to BBC News’s composite of the five most recent national polls. But many voters are still undecided, meaning Le Pen, who’s divided the country with her anti-immigration stance, still has a chance.”

Even the Harris poll that this clickbait article is referring to has LePen down almost 30 points.

"The Harris Interactive poll places Mr Macron on 61 per cent and Ms Le Pen on 33 per cent."
