It looks like Douai swings to PS after 31 years of right-wing. This will be one of few exceptions tonight though...

Avignon swings left. With half polling stations scrutinized, Forbach is at PS 47 FN 35. Seems like I may be able to visit my family in law after all...

So far four cities for FN : Hénin Beaumont, Fréjus, Béziers, Villers-Coterets. probably two more to come in. Up to Marine Le Pen the FN has now 1 200 conseillers municipaux.

In the UK after a local election, the BBC produce a national projected vote share. Does French television do the same?

For those who understand French, an article about cities in the south who vote for the FN.
http://www.lemonde.fr/politique/article/2014/03/29/dans-le-sud-la-desertion-des-centres-villes-favorise-le-vote-d-extreme-droite_4391984_823448.html
There are more articles like that in the local press, the main lesson is that no one is scared of the FN anymore, even ethnic minorities.

I lived two years in Perpignan and the city is pretty ed up. Dirty, unsafe... I had a small supermarket in my street, every day when the shop closed there was a always a dozen of people, families with children, coming to get their food from the dumpster. And I lived in an average area, not in the ghetto.
It's the same in Béziers, Marseille...

It's pretty clear from results like Hénin-Beaumont and Béziers that their voter base is not middle-class psephology fans on the internet...

So, what's FN governance in the towns they've won going to look like? Any crazy policy implementation or will they largely do nothing?

There was indeed a national projected vote share published (which came as a surprise). The tally was Right 46%, Left 41%, Far Right 7%, Others 7%.

With thanks to Hash for helping with party labeling. Any mistakes are mine.

PCF also includes FG members who are not (these days) in the PCF.

Wow, this is brutal. You know something is VERY wrong when a majority of the 93 area is blue.

The elections of the agglomeration presidents is always funny.
This time, it's Lille Métropole (1.1 millions inhabitants, 85 communes).

The incumbent, Martine Aubry (PS), mayor of Lille, seeing she would lose decided to not run and instead endorse the centrist independant candidate, who won (with the votes of the left and centrist independants).

So, Damien Castelain, mayor of Péronne-en-Mélantois (872 inhabitants!) is the new president, at the astonishment of most. It's like the second-smallest commune of it.
