Without Le Pen France doesn’t have 5 years.

Estimates from early results:

Looks like Le Pen can win the first round if the Socialist Hamon siphons enough votes from gloablist puppet Macron.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Is it too late already?

How many socialists and Muslims does it take to destroy a Western democracy?

How many of these parasites voted in today’s election?

I think we all knew 2016 was America’s last chance . . . and things are still in the balance.

France is much farther gone.

I still have some hope for Germany.

The BBC just put up the accurate figures! Doing exactly what CNN did on November 8 - delaying the tally!

Wow! I was going for a walk but now I want to see British and French heads explode.

Well at least the UK escaped the insanity with Brexit. I have more hope for the French then I do for Germany with that mad women Merkel running things. Let see if Le Pen can pull off a miracle. If the French elect another know nothing globalist they are finished as a sovereign nation. And they will have earned they’re ruin. How anyone in France could not vote for Le Pen amazes me.

I’d think the next two weeks will be the safest in France’s history, the jihadis will suddenly be watched and bagged. Too bad their no-go zones can’t be made to no-mail-out zones.. I think most of their voting is done by mail.

Fascinating how none of the European channels I’m clicking through have mentioned she’s ahead in the polls.

They seem to have much more faith in exit polls than I have.

OK so there is going to be a run off. Of the other candidates, which one’s supporters might be expected to switch to Le Pen in the final round?
