Info I hear from France suggests results may be very surprising.
I had to double check I was reading right. Now appears to be confirmed by *EARLY EXITS* in Swiss media:
RN weaker than expected.
Fight for first between left & Macronists, though RN possible still in right for low plurality.
Belgian media is now reporting the same thing.
2 other polling institutes are independently projecting the same thing: a much weaker RN than expected, and Left bloc potentially in first place.
Context here: Polls have closed in a lot of France as of 90 minutes ago. French media is not allowed to hint at any exit polls or potential trends until 8pm local time, but Belgian and Swiss media (a lot of which is French-speaking) are not bound.
