France Presidential Election
86% Vote counted

Emmanuel Macron, 39yrs
7,282,829 - 23.5%

Marine Le Pen, 48
6,901,237 - 22.3%

François Fillon, 63
6,147,778 - 19.9%

Jean-Luc Mélenchon, 65
5,877,526 - 19%


Interesting to note, Macron, the youngest candidate was partyless, he founded his party, En Marche! on 6th April 2017 and he is most likely the next president. Until yesterday, the other contestants did not consider Macron a threat and actually dismissed him as a joke. Sunday sermon lesson, anything's possible.

BBI will solve it

Don't be too simplistic in your analysis. Are you also talking about the capital and power working behind and for him?

Are you taking the media for your source of truth?

And what will you say in case Le Pen wins in the second round?

Is there a place in Kenya, or even on the net where one can learn election design and engineering?

She cannot win round 2, the young people there don't want her nonsense. I predict Macron will win the run - off with a landslide.
I think the biggest lesson here is they were tried of the old establishments, the voters kicked the old parties out.
As for the capital and resources, 'simplistically' putting it, Le pen had more.

I don't want to say Macron won't win, but remember even Le Pen cried out because of his backers. Too powerful, too insider to be ignored.

Trumpism means wealth and power to some quarters. They only have to be few in number to have their way.

What I'm trying to say, is that elections are mainly a kind of discourse that has very little to do with the masses as with capital and its ambitions.

After Russia's 'endorsement' then Trump's; then the terrorist attacks, I can't be so sure about what's happening.
