Open!

Post campaign stuff, polls, etc here, and not first-round analysis. And vice-versa, obviously.

As a random point of interest, in 2002 about 250,000 more people voted for the Commies in the legislative elections than voted for Hue a few months earlier.

I think Sarkozy will win the second round with 53,4% to Royals 46,6%.

I disagree, I think she'll get 46,7%. Tongue Wink

Wrong! It'll be 46.8% Angry Wink

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

When do we get the "official" numbers? U.K time? (I can't seem to remember when it was a few weeks ago... 8 o clock, right?)

Huh? Please tell me who was third way in the second round? You could make a case that Bayrou was a "third way" candidate but Royal really was not "third way" economically.

True. On the whole she was noticably to the right of Blair (except in rhetoric, obviously).

It has never crossed your mind that big city people tend to be rude in every country and that Parisian behaviour reflects mainly that? (i.e. Peking, New York, Berlin, Stockholm are all in their respective countries known for the same thing)

I understand that but I think that the French, overall, have quite an attitude. Like I said, I have dealt with the French outside of Paris.

I understand that but I think that the Americans, overall, have quite an attitude. Like I said, I have dealt with the Americans outside New York.

I understand that but I think that the Italians, overall, have quite an attitude. Like I said, I have dealt with the Italians outside Rome.

Actually I've no problem with Americans or Italians. Just pointing out the hypocrisy, that's all Smiley
