There doesn’t seem to have been a post Toulouse terrorism bounce fir Sarkozy; his rise in the polls started before the terrorist attacks.
The big surprise is the enormous success of the extreme far left, anti-capitalist, anti-American, Jean-Luc Melanchon, who us now polling higher than Marine Le Pen.
Hollande is running scared, fearing that Melanchon is gobbling up all the far left votes that would normally go for him.
Another fact of note is the unprecedented people who say they will not vote at all.
Latest polls:
SARKOZY 28.5%
HOLLANDE 27%
MELANCHON 16%
MLP 14%
No surprise as we hear the same in the USA....I think "the peoples" of the world, no matter what nation they are in are throughly fed up with corruption and politicians whose last concern, after they've acumulated their fortunes and power, is the people..if then.
Thanks Cincinna.
Why would they support the far left guy? After all they’ve been through with the religion of pieces?
