All polls have shown that Sarko picks up about half of Bayrous vote, and almost all of le Pens. Probably those of Villiers and Nihous as well.
Royal at 26%, even if she captured every single vote on the Left, would not get the 50.1% necessary to win.
That is amazing, so we could very well see a blowout of Royal in May, a real landslide if those polls are correct that is.
Cool, France politics have been fractious for quite sometime now.
I will be in Paris on election Sunday....I think it will be quite the carnival atmosphere and hopefully I can find a Sarko pin to wear.
