French Presidential Election 2017, Run-Off

[Maxwell]

Three days y'all - What would you do now that you know who the candidates are.

[Frozen Sky Ever Why]

Le Pen. At least she's right on trade. And Macron is pretty bad on immigration too, just in the other direction.

[Antonio the Sixth]

I'll hold my nose, take a deep breath, and put a Flawless, Beautiful ballot in the envelope.

[America Needs R'hllor]

Le Pen. At least she's right on trade. And Macron is pretty bad on immigration too, just in the other direction.

Ah, this is exactly the sort of people Democrats should appeal to... Right?
Anyway, Macron.

[Illiniwek]

Obviously Macron.

[Bismarck]

I suppose Macron. He's terrible on immigration and seems like a complete empty suit, but Le Pen is not my cup of tea.

[mencken]

The one with the hot intelligent niece.

[Intell]

Abstain, Le Pen is better than Marcon in certain aspects, though I couldn't vote for her.

[they don't love you like i love you]

[Sumner 1868]

A new Reign of Terror is pretty much the only real solution at this point.

[Antonio the Sixth]

A new Reign of Terror is pretty much the only real solution at this point.

Hear, hear!

[Santander]

Le Pen, obviously.

[Lachi]

Macron, enthusiastically.

[Vosem]

Macron (normal right-wing)

[Mr. Smith]

Abstain, Le Pen is better than Marcon in certain aspects, though I couldn't vote for her.

[○∙◄☻¥tπ[╪AV┼cVê└]

Neither

Yes.

Yes.

Says the person who supports the wall, and reducing legal immigration as well.

Yes.

Says the person who unironically cares about reducing the deficit.

[Tender Branson]

Macron (I'd be more or less motivated to do so, if I were French)

And Le Pen probably won't even break 35% in the runoff.

Reducing forms of work visa's etc, guest visa's for work, yes, visa's given by employers, temporary work VISA's yes, otherwise, not really. I support increasing student VISAS etc. though.

[Antonio the Sixth]

She almost certainly will.

[Tender Branson]

And Le Pen probably won't even break 35% in the runoff.

She almost certainly will.

Where should the other 14% come from ?

Even in the 2015 regionals the FN did worse in the 2nd round than the 1st (28% vs. 27%).

And if all major candidates and parties line up behind Macron, it will be very hard for her to pass 35%.

NDA voters will mostly back Le Pen. So will a big chunk of Fillon ones (and most Asselineau and Cheminade supporters to, for the mighty 1% that will bring in). Add in a number Mélenchon supporters who abstain in the second round and you easily have Le Pen hitting 40%

Most immigrants I believe come here through work visas.

Also why do you support building a wall
