Riots could break out in cities across France after results are announced of the first round of the presidential election, intelligence services have warned, as the most unpredictable vote in decades goes ahead amid a heightened terror alert.

Trouble is almost certain if the far-Right leader Marine Le Pen and her far-Left counterpart Jean-Luc-Mélenchon are the two candidates who make it through to the second and final round on May 7, according to a report issued by French intelligence services.

The confidential document, leaked to Le Parisien newspaper, said that at the top of the list of potential security problems as millions of France cast their ballots was the “jihadist threat.”

In the first video, immediately following the above excerpt, the commentator calls Marine Le Pen a "National Socialist." He then gives a very feable explanation. #fakenews

That sounds like a good reason to vote for Marine Le Pen.

So their message is “vote for Islamic Socialism or we’ll riot in the streets”?

Good to see a functioning democracy.

Pretty much the same as ours, sadly.

Fox just announced the election has resulted in a runoff between Le Pen and Macron.

Perhaps another French Revolution is in the making. Last time they got Napolean dictator out of that godless fiasco. Now they have the followers of the moon god on the same side of the godless leftists. Truly an unholy alliance against the right thinking Patriots in fewer numbers. Crossroads for France once again.

I believe rioting was predicted if DJT won, too.

I don’t believe Le Pen has a solid a chance in the run off. Sorry to say that.

Hey Trump was written off as a forgone conclusion and look what happened. Does France have enough motivated Patriots? We shall see.

Live French Broadcast of Election (English speakers)

They seem to be sure Macron will win in 2 weeks.

France can only survive if Le Pen becomes President.

I wonder if things would have been different if Charles de Gaulle was president.

"How do you say ‘snowflake’ in French?"

"Manger de la merde, s’il vous plaît."

Oh, sorry, I thought you asked: "what do you say to a ...".
