And Le Pen probably won't even break 35% in the runoff.

She almost certainly will.

Where should the other 14% come from ?

Even in the 2015 regionals the FN did worse in the 2nd round than the 1st (28% vs. 27%).

And if all major candidates and parties line up behind Macron, it will be very hard for her to pass 35%.

NDA voters will mostly back Le Pen. So will a big chunk of Fillon ones (and most Asselineau and Cheminade supporters to, for the mighty 1% that will bring in). Add in a number Mélenchon supporters who abstain in the second round and you easily have Le Pen hitting 40%

There's every chance the FN tears itself apart in the next 5 years tbh. The Philippot and Maréchal-Le Pen wings don't exactly get on well.
