To whom are going to turn the voters of Jean-Luc Mélenchon for the second round of the presidential election? The candidate of La France insoumise called not to give a single voice to Marine Le Pen.
In Foix (Ariege)Jean-Luc Mélenchon won the vote on Sunday 10 April by winning 31% votes in the first round of the presidential election, far ahead of Emmanuel Macron and Marine Le Pen. A huge disappointment for the voters of the candidate of La France insoumise. Some do not want to go back to the polls. Blank voting is an option for many residents.

For the undecided, the next fortnight could be decisive. All voters met by France 2 Mondaynone spoke out for Emmanuel Macron or Marine Le Pen.
Who are the voters of Jean-Luc Mélenchon today? “What is remarkable in the electorate of Jean-Luc Mélenchon is that he really took the vote of young people. A large third of those under 35 voted for Jean-Luc Mélenchon, it’s much more than for Marine Le Pen and it’s even more than for Emmanuel Macron”analyzes Brice Teinturier, Deputy CEO of Ipsos France, present on the set of 13 Hours of France 2. The latter also specifies that the rebellious candidate “is as strong among senior managers as it is among employees“.
