Thanks, I speak French well enough. I'd much prefer for them to simply air it live on tv.

Well thats good for you, because I just speak English, German and Italian fluently. But anyway, TV5 is broadcasting it live in French. ARTE just on its website. Smiley

Does anyone know what time the debate will begin for us folks on the East Coast across the pond?  Smiley  Also, will France 24 be covering this debate online? I'd love to watch a live stream.

The debate begins at 3 pm your time. I donŽt know if France 24 will show it, their website says nothing ... Just watch ARTE TV or TV5 instead Wink

I'm sure I'll get a lot of questions at work as to what the hell I am watching.  Tongue

Watch out ! As a PA Republican you'll probably get lynched for watching a "FRENCH" debate. Get your Freedom fries ready ... Wink

Royal attacks Sarkozy on the increase of violence during his time as Interior minister, Sarkozy conters with blaming Royal's Socialist predecessors for the increase.

Sarkozy talks how to deal with sexual predators and juvenile criminals. Royal gives "rape example."

Royal talks about her plans to speed up France's economic growth, benefits for small companies, reduction of the debt, Sarkozy accuses her of being superficial and she should talk so that "the French people are able to follow her talk". Sarkozy wants to strengthen the image of "work", critisizes the 35-hour-week.

Royal is pretty busy to bridge the Nuclear-Alternative-Discussion, because she looks for the votes of the far-left and Greens which hate Nuclear energy. Therefor Sarkozy is now aggresively lobbying for the nuclear industry Tongue

Ah, poor Segolene, getting all worked up.

"No, I will not calm down."

Remember that line, folks. Madame Royal just lost the election. It's over.

A lively debate ... Tongue

Anyone else who can give opinions on the outcome? I only saw some excerpts of it. Swedish media which is extremely partisan called it as a Royal victory but they're about as clueless as always.

WeŽll have to watch the next polls, but I still believe Sarkozy will win with between 53-55% on Sunday.

Question to Umengus:

Will Belgian and Swiss TV stations again publish exit polls in advance, shortly after 6pm ?

Turnout was 75.11% @ 5pm. About 1% higher than in the 1st round 2 weeks ago.

It'll either be surprisingly close, or Sarkozy will win by a larger than expected margin.

That's what it looks like.

I'm still hoping on a shock Royal win though.

(When are the results announced - 9:00?)

In half an hour (unofficial Swiss/Belgian TV estimates) and then in 2.5 hours (official French Exit polls and projections) Smiley

RTBF, a Belgian TV channel has a first (unofficial) 5pm estimate:

Sarkozy: 53%
Royal: 47%
