France: Le Pen + Megret > Chirac

[Thomas Seay]

Here's something to consider.  If you take the other
extreme-right candidate's votes(Bruno Megret) which
counted 2.4 percent and add those to Le Pens 17.3, you
get a greater score than Chirac's 19.5 percent.

No doubt though that the Socialist voters will vote
Chirac. If those who voted for the trotskyists abstain
(as I imagine they will) you could get an almost
american abstention rate of 40 percent.
