Re: Sègo vs Sarko: presidential poll update (none / 1)

66% of Le Pen voters going to Sarkozy is actually pretty high. The Le Pen vote has never been purely a vote of the right, it's also a very populist and fuck-the-system vote (a vote successfully taken away from the communists). Don't forget that Le Pen is the first candidate of blue collar voters.

That might be because the Le Pen voters are sexist, or a warning that Sarkozy is more like Le Pen than your normal right-wing second-round candidate.

Agreed, but given Sarkozy's efforts I found it lower than he might have expected. The thing is we haven't really got a recent past election to make a comparison.

Royal's support on the left is interesting. She pulls voters away from the extreme left in Round One, and gets a good transfer from that sector in Round Two.
