The latest from the Frog Pond is that Macronian Amphibians are standing down from the election if one of the candidates from the Radical Left is better positioned to defeat Penne Pasta and prevent the Nazis from taking power. So far, 180 candidates have pulled out.
This sets up a pitched battle between the Nazis and the Commies to see if one of them can win the necessary 289 seats to form a Goobermint and choose the Prime Minister. The Nazis were projected to win between 250-300 seats before the Left mobilized and the centrists withdrew to throw their support to the radicals.
If neither gets the necessary majority, France will have a hung Parliament incapable of passing any legislation and Macron may appoint Technocrats to run the Pond until 2027.
The next round of elections happens July 7th, and the Olympics begins a couple of weeks after that. Pariis has a socialist Mayor, so if Le Penne wins count on lots of action in front of the Eiffel tower.
