French Paris Elections
Crazy results this weekend as the main stream candidates were swept aside and LePen and Macron move onto the May 7th runoff.
The runoff is expected to be a clash of conservatism vs Liberalism and Isolationism/France First vs Globalization.
Polls show that Macron should win the runoff in a handy fashion.
However with the pretty much destruction of Paris' mainstream parties and two what you would call outsiders moving to the run off it shows to me at least a shifting of balance in terms of national politics where people are looking for alternatives to what they see as societal elite politicians or a political class of people.
