"I couldn't believe it. It was such a surprise." French journalist and filmmaker @RokhayaDialloFR reacts to a left-wing alliance's upset of the far right in Sunday's French election.
For over 50 years the French Election result in the second round has always been the reverse of the first round, so the current result should not be a surprise. French voters evidently do not want political extremists of the right or left to run the country. It will likely be a centrist with moderate left and right government coalition. France votes with its heart in the first round and with its head in the second round.
