Emmanuel Macron and Marine Le Pen have both progressed from the first round in the French presidential election.
The two candidates will face off in the second round on May 7, where Macron is widely tipped to become the president of France.

It is hard to find French polling data....
So Le Pen “has no path” to winning the election.
This will be close. Macron has soft support. And LaPen has strong & unseen support.
I wouldn’t be shocked if it turns out to be a 2% race and right now I wouldn’t wager a nickel on either of them to win.
Not finding polls is more accurate. .
It won’t be close. But in the very unlikely event it is, Le Pen will lose. She will not be permitted to win.
This “election” is a done deal.
The French aren’t into election polls so much. Maybe a good thing.
I hope the French realize the magnanimity of this election, just like we did last Nov 8.
Rigged
The debate just ended. Le Pen did well. These polls are worthless.
Can someone find the real polls then?
Les polls, c`est moi.
This French one could turn out to resemble the elections that Poland held in the 70's.
.
If Le Pen fails to win, France is gone; probably in just a few months.
.
As soon as they are done.
It’s at about 60% Macron, 40% Le Pen, as it was about 30 days ago. But that is after mid to late April when Macron was rising, up to 63% around April 20th. And since then he has been going down.
I am going lay out my crystal ball and suggest the general election is going to be a 53% Macron 47% Le Pen result. And, that Le Pen’s party will do even more than that in the next elections for the legislature in June, just a little more than a month away. Le Pen’s party, just with the 47% result will be energized more than everyone else and outside Paris, people just seeing that will go to her party more than before.
Then, Macron will make numerous mistakes, lose a parliamentary vote of confidence, see numerous violent incidents, and call for new elections in 2019. That will be Le Pen’s year.
I think France is headed into much more turbulent times and Macron will be the loser for it.
Seems like we’ve heard that a couple times recently . . .
