PARIS (AP) - French voters chose Nicolas Sarkozy as their new president on Sunday, giving the conservative a comfortable margin for victory and a mandate for change, result projections from four polling agencies showed. His Socialist opponent conceded minutes after polls closed.
The agencies said the conservative won 53 percent of the vote amid massive turnout, dashing Socialist Segolene Royal's hopes of being elected France's first woman president. The projections were based on vote counts from representative samples of hundreds of polling stations across the country.
Long past night time there now, so looks like she was just blowing smoke which is a good thing
“Vive le retour d’une vraie amitie entre les deux!”
Oui,oui, C’est bon. Et avec champagne - A votre sante!
