Find here all of our live #PRESIDENTIELLE
00:28 : Even Neuilly fell into the purse of the outgoing president. Emmanuel Macron is close to 50% in the first round in the city of Nicolas Sarkozy, Eric Zemmour is second and Valérie Pécresse on the third step of the podium, with 15% of the vote.
00:25 : The tortoise has just arrived in the midst of the support of Jean-Luc Mélenchon, madness seizes the surroundings of the Cirque d’Hiver.
00:26 : And during this time, in front of the HQ of the “rebellious”…
00:29 : Good evening @Ana. This is what happens with each election: it is impossible to have the full results as soon as the offices close, so we communicate an estimate at 8 p.m. It is always presented as such, with all the caution that that implies. It is drawn up by institutes (for us, Ipsos-Sopra Steria) which are based on a selection of offices which, added together, are as representative as possible of the vote of all French people.
The process is not perfect, but if the estimate was really tight at 8 p.m., we would not hesitate to announce that the candidates are too close to be decided. In this case, our estimate gave Marine Le Pen a lead of more than three points at 8 p.m., which left little risk of a surprise qualification for Jean-Luc Mélenchon. And the boss of Ipsos did not believe in this scenario after the last update of the estimate.
00:21 : Good evening ! How is it that two candidates are clearly announced in the 2nd round without even having the precise results of all the offices? And internationally?
00:18 : The Insoumis are not throwing in the towel. They await the official results given by the Ministry of the Interior within an hour, while admitting that the hypothesis of passing Le Pen is not the most probable.
00:20 : Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s entourage is eyeing the final results carefully, but remains cautious, reports our journalist Benjamin Mathieu, who spent the evening with the militants of La France insoumise in Paris.
00:18 : Dirty evening for Nicolas Dupont-Aignan, even in his stronghold of Yerres (Essonne). The candidate of Debout la France only harvests 10.8% on his land. He had taken the lead with 28.6% of the vote five years ago.
00:13 : Emmanuel Macron’s program for the next few days is becoming clearer: on Tuesday, the president-candidate will go to Strasbourg, reports France Bleu Alsace.
00:09 : In the second round, no hesitation possible. One does not confuse liberalism and fascism, cause and consequence. Because today, Marine Le Pen can come to power. It’s simple, in the second round, it will be #PasElle. La Une de l’Humanité of April 11 https://t.co/sJnZAjKj2Y
00:13 : “Not her”exclaims the one of Humanity dated tomorrow with a reminder of the logo of the National Front (now RN). “The threat of seeing the far-right candidate come to power has never been greater”analyzes the communist newspaper.
00:04 : #presidential2022 #presidential2022 #Rome

The results all over Italy tomorrow
00:07 : @Doguesaddict The results will be available tomorrow, but on Twitter, some journalists based abroad give the results of certain capitals, where the French expatriates voted. Like here with our office in Rome.
00:04 : #presidential Good evening Pierre, do you know where to find the voting results for French people living abroad?
00:08 : In Prades (Pyrénées-Orientales), in the stronghold of Jean Castex, it is Jean-Luc Mélenchon who takes the lead, with 27% of the vote. Emmanuel Macron only comes third, with 21% of the vote.
00:13 : Another snub for Valérie Pécresse: in the city where she voted, in Vélizy-Villacoublay (Yvelines), the LR candidate only comes 4th with 11.3% of the vote.
11:58 p.m. : More than one in four voters shunned the ballot box. With 26% of voters who did not turn out to vote, this first round was marked by 3.8 points more abstention than in 2017. Why were there so many abstentions? What is the profile of abstainers? What can we expect for the second round? Our colleague Yann Thompson answers these questions in an article.
11:56 p.m. : The results of the communes of Ile-de-France begin to fall. In Versailles (Yvelines), the city of Valérie Pécresse, the LR candidate only ranks fourth (13.5%), ahead of Emmanuel Macron (31.4%), but also Eric Zemmour (19.2%) and Jean -Luc Melenchon (14.2%).
11:53 p.m. : Thank you ! #Presidentielles2022 #Melenchon https://t.co/zH2idPGpQp
11:53 p.m. : Out to greet his supporters in front of the Cirque d’hiver, in Paris, Jean-Luc Mélenchon is acclaimed by the crowd.
11:46 p.m. : To report another demonstration in Lyon against the poster proposed in the second round, underlines France 3 Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes. The police intervened and the incidents are over.
11:52 p.m. : @Fabi According to the Ministry of the Interior, after counting 86% of the ballots, there are 1.57% blank ballots and 0.70% invalid ballots. It’s pretty much in the same waters as the 2017 first round.
11:45 p.m. : Good evening, is it possible to know the score of the white vote please? Thank you
11:43 p.m. : @Mimi So yes, we can, but the number of municipalities where the results are available can be counted on the fingers of one hand.
11:43 p.m. : Why, on the website of the Ministry of the Interior, one cannot access the results of the Seine Saint Denis?
11:43 p.m. : At the time I am writing to you, the official results of the Ministry of the Interior relate to nearly 85% of the ballots counted, and the difference between the second and the third is significant. The remaining ballots come from the big cities, where offices close later, and where Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s scores are high. Ultimately, the score should approach the estimate provided by Ipsos-Sopra Steria.
11:44 p.m. : You are still very numerous to ask us if the gap of 0.8 points between Jean-Luc Mélenchon and Marine Le Pen can still be reduced. I will try to be clear: Ipsos-Sopra Steria does not provide us with temporary results, but an estimate of the final result based on feedback from polling stations selected for their representativeness. The latest estimate, which gives Marine Le Pen at 23% and Jean-Luc Mélenchon at 22.2%, will not move this evening. It will be replaced in the next few hours by the final results, from the Ministry of the Interior.
11:38 p.m. : The voters of Hénin-Beaumont (Pas-de-Calais), where Marine Le Pen voted earlier, would elect the RN candidate in the first round: they give her 51.3% of the vote, far ahead Jean-Luc Mélenchon (17.2%) and Emmanuel Macron (16.8%).

11:36 p.m. : Firefighters put out a fire lit by demonstrators at Place Ste Anne in #Rennes #Presidentielle2022
11:36 p.m. : The atmosphere is tense. Rue St Michel windows are broken by hooded and masked individuals. #Rennes #Presidential2022
11:36 p.m. : “#Rennes standing up, get up” chant the demonstrators who march “against the right” after the qualification #Macron and #Lepen in the 2nd round #Presidential 2022 https://t.co/Mf5sF0RwoA
11:36 p.m. : Incidents broke out in Rennes after the announcement of the results of the first round of the presidential election, tweets a journalist from West-Francand.
11:34 p.m. : On BFMTV, the LR deputy from Vaucluse, Julien Aubert, announced that he would not vote “not for Emmanuel Macron”. “I am waiting for Les Républicains to make a collective decision tomorrow, because that is what we have decided. And then, personally, I will say who I am voting for, and this choice will not be the same as Valérie Pécresse. In any case, I will not vote for Emmanuel Macron.”
11:33 p.m. : In Le Havre, in the city of Edouard Philippe, Emmanuel Macron was capped at the post by Jean-Luc Mélenchon. The leader of the “rebellious” reached 30.2% against 27.53% for the president-candidate. Marine Le Pen comes in 3rd position with just over 20% of the vote.
11:29 p.m. : “Neither Le Pen, nor Macron: it’s the revolution” Hope is reborn in front of the HQ of @JLMelenchon as the gap narrows by 0.8% between Melenchon and Le Pen according to a new estimate. #presidential2022 https://t.co/r0FkvsEtV2
11:28 p.m. : In front of the Cirque d’hiver, in Paris, the supporters of Jean-Luc Mélenchon want to believe in a reversal of the situation, reports the journalist Rémy Buisine, of Brut.
11:27 p.m. : There are still 18% of the ballots to be counted, according to the website of the Ministry of the Interior.
11:27 p.m. : Hello Hello ! What percentage of ballots remains to be counted?
11:27 p.m. : “I’m a little stunned. The gap that was given at 8 p.m. has narrowed considerably, we’re talking about 300,000 votes difference: it’s potentially unheard of. I’m not saying that hope is allowed, but the activist that I am is torn in the face of this announced duel [entre Emmanuel Macron et Marine Le Pen]. It’s true that I have a little desire to hold on to this chance.”
Guest of France 2, Clémentine Autain reacts to the latest estimate from Ipsos-Sopra Steria, according to which only 0.8 points separate Jean-Luc Mélenchon from Marine Le Pen.
11:22 p.m. : But let me confess that it is not only frustrating, shocking but also painful to accept that in the midst of the genocidal war in Ukraine, so many French citizens gave their votes to the pro-Putin candidate, funded by Russia.
11:24 p.m. : The Ukrainian feminist activist Inna Shevchenko, a figure of the Femen, is sorry for the score of Marine Le Pen in the middle of the war in Ukraine.
11:21 p.m. : Jean Lassalle crushes the debates in Lourdios Ichères, the small village in the Pyrénées-Atlantiques of which he was mayor for a long time: 65% of the votes go to him, that is… 74 ballots. Less success for Philippe Poutou in Blanquefort (Gironde), where the Ford factory was located, where he was a worker until its closure. He won 1.5% of the votes there.
11:20 p.m. : It’s finish. In Nantes, @JLMelenchon (more than 37,000 votesc) is well ahead of Macron, while @MLP_officiel does not exceed 9%. Anne Hidaldo makes less than 3%…
11:23 p.m. : In Nantes too, the candidate of La France insoumise obtained almost 33% of the vote, ahead of Emmanuel Macron (29.6) and Yannick Jadot (9.95%). Marine Le Pen obtains only 8.3% in the city. Scathing score for Anne Hidalgo (2.6%), when we remember that the mayor of Nantes, Johanna Rolland, was her campaign manager.
11:19 p.m. : Our search engine by municipalities will teach you for example that in Saint-Amand-les-Eaux (Nord), where Fabien Roussel is a municipal councilor, he collects 20.7% of the votes and ranks second, ahead of Emmanuel Macron and Jean -Luc Mélenchon, but far behind Marine Le Pen (28.3%).
11:17 p.m. : IN THE END: Jean-Luc Mélenchon monopolizes the votes in Lille (42.70%) and in the associated communes Lille Lomme Hellemmes (40.53%).
11:18 p.m. : Note that Jean-Luc Mélenchon takes the lead in Lille, with double his national score, tweets a journalist from The voice of the North.
11:16 p.m. : Don’t forget that the final results of many municipalities are already available, by looking for their names in the search bar on our home page.
11:14 p.m. : The Ministry of the Interior aggregates the results that reach it, so first the municipalities whose offices closed at 7 p.m., first the smallest, then the big cities, and now the big agglomerations. This explains the staggered rise of the candidate of La France insoumise.
11:13 p.m. : Good evening FI. On Le Pen-Mélenchon I don’t understand the very significant difference between the latest estimates (only 0.8% between them around 10:30 p.m.) and the 7 points separating them on the website of the Ministry of the Interior:?!
