1/French rules ban polls and campaigning today before Sunday’s vote. Some closing thoughts after an extraordinarily volatile, tense campaign
2/Unlike in most French presidential elections, first-round voting really matters. There may be no reasonable second chance
@PedderSophie @faisalislam If Le Pen wins I will eat all my hats. I have an awful lot of hats. She will not win.
@PedderSophie Thanks for these thoughts, if they Spring a surprise (a la 2005) maybe it's a Fillon/Melenchon run off...
@PedderSophie The only candidate France's mogul-owned media is really afraid of is #Asselineau
@PedderSophie Good stuff on the French election here.
@PedderSophie Excellent analysis! Anybody's guess as to who'll be in the run off.
@OldNY007 @sun0369 @PedderSophie Personally, I think they don't think anyone can stop it, except le Pen (she had over 50% vote support from Gendarmes) but don't like her.
