Voters turn out in numbers as ‘divided’ France casts ballots in key run-off

A decisive second round of a snap parliamentary election is underway in France. It's the most contested race in decades, with the far-right National Rally having its first real chance of gaining power. Left-wing and centre parties have united to counter the far-right. The main question is whether that will work.

Apparently, being a patriot is tantamount to being "far-right" these days. 😅

It is an irony that when Muslim people say they are 'voting for their religion', it is not considered as far right! LOL

Some dialogue and clarifications are really needed after the elections and in the future period, because some things are really disturbing

France should be a theocratic monarchy like Qatar. Then the people won't have to worry about elections. This will happen once France is majority Muslim. We will have the French Caliphate and shariah law. The Louvre will be demolished to make a grand mosque, en shallah

Suerte para ese país. Ojsla que la cordura reine, y por lo menos no permitan que gane esa peligrosa extrema derecha. Allez les blue !!!!
