@LeopoldBloom I'm please Le Pen lost, though Macron is still gonna spend the next five years screwing over the leftist who voted for him in the second round.

@LeopoldBloom that almost 18% is misleading. Macron is one of the most hated politicians in France. If it was Jean M茅lenchon instead of Pen in 2nd round, Macron would have been floored. This was an election b/w Right(centre) vs far right..

@SW-User I would support Jean-luc Melenchon but I don't think he would have beaten Macron in round two. It would have been great to see if he could do it but he would have been the underdog.
In the first round, votes from left parties was at about 30%. The establishment would have kicked into overdrive to attack Melenchon. He would have picked up [i]some [/i]Le Pen voters because of the economic message but those people hate hipsters and immigrants and that is Melenchon's base.
I would want him to win but it would have been tough.

@SW-User Do you think 脡ric Zemmour took some voters from Le Pen? If all of his voters had voted for her, she would have won.
