Emmanuel Macron’s victory and massive abstention in Strasbourg for the second round

Unsurprisingly, Emmanuel Macron tops the votes in Strasbourg for the second round of the presidential election. After the counting of the last votes, late in the night of Sunday April 24, the outgoing president collected 77.65% of the votes in the Alsatian capitalagainst 22.35% for Marine Le Pen.

In Strasbourg, as in Colmar and Mulhouse, the candidate LREM easily leads the polls, but he loses points compared to 2017. The outgoing president had accumulated 81.23% of the votes in the same face to face five .

The abstention rate is also up sharply in the Strasbourg polling stations. He reaches 30.25% compared to 25.88% in 2017. In the Bas-Rhin, the abstention rate reached 25.38%. A figure up two points from the previous presidential election.
