DEleven personalities are participating in the first round of the French presidential election this Sunday, April 10, 2022. The 48.8 million French people registered are called upon to choose between the following candidates for the 2nd round: Valérie Pécresse for Les Républicains, l’ current President Emmanuel Macron, the socialist mayor of Paris Anne Hidalgo, Jean-Luc Mélenchon for La France insoumise, Eric Zemmour for Reconquête, the ecologist Yannick Jadot, Jean Lassalle of Résistons!, Fabien Roussel of the French Communist Party, Marine Le Pen for the National Rally, the sovereignist Nicolas Dupont-Aignan, Nathalie Arthaud of the Workers’ League and Philippe Poutou for the New Anti-Capitalist Party (NPA). Polling stations will close at 7 p.m. or 8 p.m., depending on location.
On www.lesoir.be, the editorial staff will be able to publish information at the exit of the polls in the live below, without waiting for 8 p.m. When exactly? When the information will be cross-checked, reliable and serious, quite simply. It is not a question for “Le Soir” of being the first at all costs, but of being relevant, taking into account that the gap between the candidates could be tight and that the polling stations will close at 7 p.m. (or 8 p.m. in the big cities). “Le Soir” is obviously mobilized on the event, but cautious as required by journalistic rigor. Follow the latest information live and find the official results of the polling stations at Renneson the website of the French Ministry of the Interior as soon as they are published, during the evening/election night.
