In analysing what Mélenchon voters did yesterday: what I observed in my polling place shows a three way split... the numbers add up to 50% to Macron, 25% abstained, 25% voted blank.

The votes for Macron in the second round amount to the sum of ALL of the candidates except Zemmour and Le Pen, plus half of Mélenchon.

The votes for Le Pen in the second round are exactly the sum of her first round votes and those of Zemmour. Zero transfer from Mélenchon.  I'm proud of my hood again.
