Macron's electorate: people in towns, the Bretons, people who used to be catholic, and makers of expensive Burgundy wines. Except that the old catholic heartland in the Massif Central has been displaced somewhat westward so that perhaps the logic should be: people in towns, the Bretons, people who live on the western slopes of mountains, and makers of expensie Burgundy wines.
That said, it is... funny? revealing? misleading? a complete coincidence? that the map makes Social Democracy in the 21st century look like essentially a phenomenon of peripheral regions. Even admitting that the Slovakian and Romanian "social democrats" are a little bit, um, different.
