Interesting that Mélenchon goes to the runoff there despite only winning a handful of departments.

That's thanks to Paris being a black hole for Le Pen.

Speaking of which, if one were to conjure a US-type electoral-college/single-round-of-voting scenario for France, how might the race have turned out?

Tie between Le Pen and Macron in electoral college, effectively coming down to how Melenchon's electors vote.
That's total bullsh*t, especially since she's not going to win that many departments.

The survey only includes the following options:

* vote for Macron
* vote invalid
* stay at home

No "vote for Le Pen" option.

Doing it with the fake new regions is incredibly lame. I'll try to do the calculations by Department when I have some time.

Encouraging abstention, the disease crippling democracies... I'd rather he had a Le Pen option, to be honest.

I hope Macron gets his act together in the next days because the factory trip yesterday, in which the workers booed him and embraced Le Pen (who was there at the same time), had really bad optics. Just as his victory party after round 1 ...

On the other hand, workers are a decreasing share of the electorate everywhere. It might have been enough for Trump in the US and almost enough for Hofer in Austria (Austria is a very working class country), but it's definitely not enough for Le Pen in France. Still, Macron shouldn't get too complacent.

That factory is closing to move to Poland. It is potentially like the worst place in France Macron could possibly go if he wanted a friendly welcome.

How would you calculate this by the way? You could do it US style with 2 per region + 435 allocated by department over population; but you could also do it by the number of sénateurs + the number of députés in each department, which would be a bit more logical.

Either way, St Pierre et Miquelon will be hysterically overrepresented compared to Paris or the Nord.

OpinionWay:

59% Macron
41% Le Pen

Le Pen gains 6% compared with a week ago, Macron loses 6%.

I'm bored, so here is a map showing the combined scores of "establishment" candidates (Macron, Hamon and Fillon). Together they scored a shade over 50% nationally, so spot the unhappy people.

Seems suspiciously similar to the combined left wing candidates map.

I'd say give each Department one Senator, and apportion 437 Representatives by population. That way, the Senator/Representative ratio is the same as in the Electoral College, and the total number is the same.

St Pierre et Miquelon wouldn't have any representation because it's not a Department. Along with other TOM/COM, it would be the French Puerto Rico. Tongue

It's more similar than it should be, but still, not really. Look at the western Paris area, Pays de la Loire, the mid-Alps area, or conversely Seine-Maritime and Ariège.

It's not that I think that her chances are that great otherwise, but am I the only one who thinks that openly cozying up to Putin is bad strategy from Le Pen? It only stands to reason that a large part of her appeal has to come from the "muh patriotism" types.

There's actually quite a tradition/nostalgia of seeing Russia as a useful ally in French political thought, as away of countering American or German hegemony in Europe, from the PCF to some Gaullists. I think Le Pen's main interest in Putin is his funding though, because foreign policy is a fairly apathetic issue aside from a few niche electorates.

That's total bullsh*t, especially since she's not going to win that many departments.

I *did* specify, "single-round-of-voting", i.e. same cast of players, not a runoff btw/ top two finishers.

Don't have a map or details, but Wikipedia (with a source in French) says Macron won 230 constituencies to 216 for Le Pen, 67 for Melenchon and 53 for Fillon.

Although Le Pen is gaining, I cannot see her surpassing 42%. There is no hidden Le Pen vote and the growing abstentations in polls are showing to hurt her as well as Macron.
