    Polls for the first round of the French Presidential election here. France has a dumb system, the top two winners of the first vote move on to the second vote to become president.

    So looks like Bertrand is the socalist candidate polling at 15% while Macron 24% and Le Pen 26%. Ooph not good

      Isn't this just like the Bolivian system? or is the second round 100% mandatory in France?

        No, it's the same as in all the countries with run-offs - there's no run-off if someone gets a majority the first time.
