My understanding is that we'll have an announcement in 4-5 hours (sometime after 4:00 PM EST).

A shitty post? This calls for a dance of deduction.
So, Le Pen is apparently popular with youth correct? Is Melenchon as well at least?

Why are right wing/far right wing parties so appealing to the youth in Europe, not in America?

Because business as usual centrist scum don't appeal to youth or answer problems such as high youth unemployment.

Aye, but my point is that American youth are used to being around minorities and :siren: IMMIGRANTS :siren: aren't some big boogyman for them. Most European countries are still 90%+ white

turnout down overall by like 10% compared to the same time as in recent years, on course to be lowest overall since '69, but apparently is holding up locally in areas that turned out for Le Pen in the first round:
