Also Macron to will not vote

I'm imagining just some cranky old guy "I already voted gently caress off and stop begging for more"

That one I could explain with "want to prevent someone other than Macron or Le Pen getting in and having no preference between the two".

Switching your vote from M to LP or vice versa when being asked presumably very, very shortly after casting your vote I have no explanation for.

I thought about that but the correct strategy there is Le Pen -> will not vote, because Macron was always going to make it to the second round

Le Pen-> Macron could be a strategy for someone who really prefers Macron but wants to keep the left out of the second round

Got nothing on the other way around

I mean on the one hand now my path to citizenship should be relatively easier, but on the other, Macron.

Still, she got a lot of the votes. I hope that's just "gently caress Macron" more than "Whee! Nationalism!" It's worrying.

A shitty post? This calls for a dance of deduction.
Is Le Pen really that bad of a candidate that she can't beat Macron?

Does she lack that "Trump charisma"?

But Macron is a cryptofascist, what with his fetishing of Pétain et al? So I'd think a vote for either Macron or Le Pen would be a bad sign... :thunk:
