Turnout is high for the second round of the French elections, which may lead to France’s first far-right government since the World War II Nazi occupation.
The Left and Moderates in France are ganging up against the Rally Party. Where there are three candidates in contention for a district, one of the left/moderate candidates will drop out to consolidate their votes against the Right.
Turnout has been higher for the second round. The Rally party will still win the most seats. It remains to be seen if its margin is lower than the first round.
