You don't think who his support is should be highlighted?
Why would that be? ... data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7

Election fever appears to be spreading -
Malta Snap Election on June 3rd http://www.politico.eu/article/malta-calls-snap-elections-prime-minister-joseph-muscat-panama-papers-mossack-fonseca/
And a possible early election as the Czech coalition Government looks like it's collapsed due to a scandal.
From the debate last night.
Le Pen: "France will be led by a woman, either me or Angela Merkel!"
The debate was too long, had too many personal attacks and was light on policy from both sides. Polls say Macron was perhaps slightly better but then he is polling higher anyway.
Now Obama has released a video clip supporting Macron- You would have thought that after the 'back of the queue' fiasco he would have kept his nose out.
Obama is like Blair - cannot resist making pronouncements when they are no longer of any concern.
Same with Farage, from Trump to MLP ...

Second most eurosceptic. We only managed third but then we voted to leave.
Euroscepticism on rise in Europe, poll suggests - Euroscepticism on rise in Europe, poll suggests - BBC News
In its poll results released on Tuesday, the Pew ResearchCenter found a majority of people were unfavourable towards the EU in Greece (71%) and France (61%).
Looking at how close the polling figures are, in comparison to what they were supposed to be by now, I think this is going to go very very close.
Much like with Brexit, I think there'll be a lot of people voting Le Pen who will never suggest as much when asked the same 'do you support the leader of the fascist racist neo-nazi party' question before voting day.
Macron wins, 51-49.
I work with a number of French. They are not happy with the EU. It is seen as a project that is not working in favour of the working man. It is becoming more and more apparent that Germany is doing very well out of it and Merkel is pulling the strings.
France has widespread unemployment and they do not see any improvement in the near future. The present socialist government has been a complete disaster which is why Hollande didn't bother to fight an election this time. Many would like a shake up and that is why Le Pen is running second. But the National Front is 'unsavoury' for many and that is why she probably won't win.
They don't have a UKIP, who successfully distanced themselves from the far right racist parties.
If there was a strong Eurosceptic party other than Le Pen, standing against centrist pro EU Macron, I am sure there would be much more support than we see for Le Pen.
