[Terry the Fat Shark]

Turnout at this point in 2012 Round 2 was 71.96%

[Classic Conservative]

Turnout at 5pm
65.30% (-4.1)

It's down 6.6% not 4.1%

[Tirnam]

Down 4.1 points  compared to the first round

[Tirnam]

Turnout projection, Ipsos: 74%

[Classic Conservative]

Can anybody link the Department turnout figures for 2017 2nd Round?

[DavidB.]

Guys, it would also be nice not to post leaks or early exit poll results or anything from the Belgian/Swiss TV or newspapers.

Just post the links and not the actual results/leaks.

Thx.

Why? We always post the prices of tomatoes, water, bananas and what have you for the Spanish elections too.

IPSOS/SOPRA estimates Abstention rates at 26%

[Devout Centrist]

26% is a pretty decent abstention rate, in line with what most pollster had.

This seems to be the typical French voter of today: Martine from Rennes (who voted for Melenchon in the 1st round, but for Macron this time).

You must be logged in to read this quote.

This is supported by the polls, which said that 60% only voted for Macron today because they want to block Le Pen, while 40% said they are voting for him with conviction. For Le Pen, it's the other way around.

[Donerail]

The Swiss report Macron at 78% Martinique, 75% Guadeloupe, 65% Guiana.

[Tirnam]

Anecdotal but in my polling station turnout was down this afternoon but now slightly catches up in the last hours.

[Mike88]

The Swiss report Macron at 78% Martinique, 75% Guadeloupe, 65% Guiana.

Guadeloupe:

75.1% Macron
24.9% Le Pen

Martinique:

77.5% Macron
22.5% Le Pen

Guyana:

65.0% Macron
35.0% Le Pen

Saint Barthelemy:

58.4% Macron
41.6% Le Pen

Saint Martin:

73.8% Macron
26.2% Le Pen

POLITICO and other publications have been barred from the National Front event tonight.

[Tender Branson]

I've read somewhere on Twitter that New York City was 97% Macron, 3% Le Pen.

[Donerail]

POLITICO and other publications have been barred from the National Front event tonight.

Libération will also be boycotting in solidarity.

[The Other Castro]

Leaked exit polls so beware, but it's looking like a landslide folks:

[Kringla Heimsins]

I just voted in Munich. There was no queue this time (I waited 50 minutes two weeks ago), but the officials told me there was no substantial drop in turnout. The 7th constituency (which cover most of central Europe) voted for Macron 53% in the first round.

[SunSt0rm]

My little South Dakota brain can't believe there are still people like this

[Devout Centrist]

Well they both suffer from psychosis, so perhaps there's some truth to that statement.

[MAINEiac4434]

Yeah but Macron's descended from Napoleon so he'll win.

Also there's a small segment of french society who are "neo-monarchists".

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_Fran%C3%A7aise

Its mainly popular amongst traditionalist social conservatives who are way into the idea of the monarchy because they "want to return to the glory days of social conservative 1700s france"
