http://www.lefigaro.fr/elections/pr...in-dimanche.php here's a thing on the elections. it seems the first round has started as of an hour ago quote:Le vote pour le premier tour de la présidentielle vient de débuter à Saint-Pierre et Miquelon. C'est le premier département d'Outre-mer à voter avant la Guyane à 13 heures. Dans cette collectivité de l'Atlantique nord, près de 5000 personnes sont inscrites sur les listes électorales.

sexpig by night posted:yea Macron is basically exactly the same as *check notes* the actual neo-nazi, like just a full on fascist white supremacist nationalist more like he's a hillary, and we all saw how that played out in 2016 he might be more anti-immigrant, but maybe not

"polling was right this time! that must mean it's fixed and we can trust it again!!" i don't think the guy who's responsible for the PS and current admin being as hated as it is now will show too well against fascist le pen in an election where voters are calling for change

sexpig by night posted:voters have constantly polled supporting the lovely bank boy much more than the lovely nazi and hell, I'm ok with that. Not HAPPY, but yea stopping the nationalist surge in europe is a good thing. i hope it stops it, but i'm not at all hopeful that the establishment candidate who's had a big hand it why things are how they are in france is gonna do well against an anti-establishment candidate. hillary was polling at certain to win when the primary ended and she still flubbed it to trump, and she wasn't as involved as macron was in the recent hated french admin

White Rock posted:Far-Right French Presidential Candidate Marine Le Pen Has Surprising Gay Support this is a natural result of having your candidates never keep their promises: "she doesn't really mean that she'll axe gay marriage!" unfortunately, centrist's two-faced private face/public face bullshit leaves voters unable to tell if a candidate is being honest or just bullshitting, even when they really need to like when the candidate is a fascist

Tacky-rear end Rococco posted:No, you just said "I don't like Obama doing things I don't like," you didn't explain how he made anything worse, or how he "[helped] side another fascist into power." I find this idea genuinely confusing! Would you please explain your reasoning? he advocated for macron and wanted macron to win. macron's a hillary clone and will lose to a fascist. other ways obama has messed things up: he helped install perez as DNC, even though perez has no qualifications whatsoever and it's quickly showing. hth

Kurtofan posted:none of the left candidates this election were milquetoast centrists really, hamon was leftist, he just was very uncharimastic unfortunately i'm not sure how uncharismatic hamon is rather than his vote being split between a strong leftist and traitor macron. i really dunno why he didn't get more votes other than the bang up job macron and hollande did ruining the name of the PS. edit: like why was macron running as independent in any case? melenchon is a bit expected considering he had very little power in PS, but macron was high up in the PS so why'd he abandon it?
