I’m sure a lot of them were in the minority who voted AGAINST Francois Hollande.

The so called "1%" in the United States supports big taxing liberal Democrats almost exclusively.

I doubt its any different in France.

I don’t think there is a comparison between France and the US on this.
Hollande got 96% of the Muslim vote. The middle class white vote, and upper class parts of Paris and suburbs like Neuilly went for Sarko 70-80%.
