French elections 2015: Sarkozy triumphs, Le Pen and Hollande fail

THEump di Nicolas Sarkozy blows the bank in the ballots of elections in France for the renewal of 101 Departments, determining the crisis of the Socialist Party by François Hollande and the downsizing of Marine Le Pen's far right.

The data coming out of the French polls show above all the socialist debacle, which lost half of the departments. According to the numbers provided by the French media, only 30 departments would go to the Socialist Party (before yesterday's election the socialists were at the helm of 61). The French prime minister, the socialist Manuel Valls, already yesterday evening admitted the defeat of his party with a laconic sentence: “Tonight the republican right achieved success in the departmental elections. This is indisputable."

He doesn't even cheer the Marine Le Pen's Front National, On the contrary. Le Pen's far right has disappointed expectations. Many, on the eve, imagined seeing numerous flags of the Front National hoisted on the departments where Le Pen's men had come to the ballot. But also for the Front National is the flop it was sensational. Ballots lost. Everyone. And the game of Risk beyond the Alps is the revived Sarkozy who hits the target of conquering 2/3 of the territories.

A large and convincing success that has drastically changed the colors of the French map, which once again have a clear predominance of blue. The centre-right alliance formed by theump of Sarkozy and Udi and MoDem reconquers all the northern departments with the exception of Department 62, Pas-de-Calais, and almost all the departments of central France. In total, more than 60 departments go to the Sarkozy alliance. A large victory that could be the prelude to a new triumph in the regional elections to be held in December and in which, at this point, the UMP is the party to beat.
