  "text": "######*13th April 2027;*\n\n“There has been such significant breaches of law and order across the country, and the efforts are so concerted that we simply lack the police officers as well as the Gendarmerie, combined, to deal with the matter at once. Now, Minister, what are we to do now? Is further force required?”\n\n> Welcome to your nightmare.\n\n> Come on inside. \n\n> We’re on a road to paradise.\n\n> Here we go…\n\n> Here we go. \n\n***\n\n###SUMMARY; Reuters French 2027 Presidential Elections - Round 1; \n\n*By Elaine Santeurs;*\n\n#####***IT*** *has been noted within the past week in France, leading up towards the First Round of the 2027 Presidential Elections, that a major increase in politically-motivated criminal offences has been noted. Whilst major protests have been ever-present within Paris, Lyon, and Lille, among other cities, since January, it has been particularly notable in the past week that seemingly, supporters from the parties of candidates Jean-Luc Melenchon, Marine Le Pen, Gerald Darmanin, and Eric Zemmour have all clamoured to gain any sort of advantage. However, it was the voters at the polls to decide which two candidates to send through towards the second round of the Presidential Elections for 2027, and which of the 10 candidates present shall leave the running. No matter the results, even if it did go down to a showdown between two more amiable candidates towards the general population, there is only guaranteed to be a general uptick in the amount of disorder present within France.*\n\nBy all means, the French faith within their current system of governance, and how to fix its many endemic flaws that have particularly shown themselves since the 2008 Great Recession and election of Nicolas Sarkozy, has fractured upon the fractures within society. A general mix of opposition to the current system has come in forms ranging from general reform (e.g. Ensemble) towards full replacement (e.g. La France Insoumise), but the atmosphere is of change. It matters much that even the incumbent Ensemble party wish not to stick to the current status quo; their platform has been raised on gradual reforms to fix up all of the current systems, such as overhauls to the taxation system, increase in the powers of the Prime Minister to stand far closer to the President in all matters of importance, and investigations within the EU to try to finally end the long recovery period following the triple shocks of the early 2020s (Covid-19, Ukraine War, 2022-23 Delayed Recession). No doubt, their wish is to merely make it into the second round - even Macron in his re-election only received 27% of the first-round vote. His desired successor, Véran, seemed set to receive even less, and yet with so many stronger candidates, even a smaller percentage could be enough.\n\nIt must not be understated how competitive many of the candidates have been. For each and every TV debate, there assumed 5 candidates to be the main combatants for 2027 - from right-wing to left-wing: Zemmour, Le Pen, Darmanin, Véran, and Melenchon. Each, including the seemingly-aligned Darmanin and Le Pen (the former of whom is aided by Bardella, the latter’s former main ally), went quite at each other, attacking on the slightest details whether about climate change, protests, the status of Russia and China, inactivity in certain political offices, among other issues. One TV debate though, for Friday 26th March 2027, was called off on the night due to an assumed bomb threat from the CGC. Though the group have repeatedly denied the accusations of such a bomb plot, claiming that they have no right to threaten potential national leaders that would instantly crush their small movement with full force, suspicions have been raised from the right of the candidate pedestals about dealing with such ‘rebellions’. The main answer given was force, and this idea of concerted brinkmanship, and not blinking in the opponent’s face, has been cited as the main reason for what was to come. \n\nFrom all sides came a barrage of words and actions, meant only to defile political opponents. Of the five candidates, only Marine Le Pen’s Twitter (formerly known as X) account was not hacked at some point, with each of the hacked account’s posting pettily defamatory imagery that sought to disavow any other potential Presidents. From misogyny to threats to absolutist talk, the wide array of harm pushed forward by the supporters has absolutely and completely marred this election already. Once social media had been pushed into a hellfire - with Twitter’s Board of Directors cutting off access to Twitter posting in France to people with over 100,000 followers in order to stem this wave of hacking by providing new 3-factor authentication for log-in - it was the turn of the streets to feel the fury. In Lyon alone, approximately €50 Million in damages has been paid out for by the Borne government, with many business owners interviewed by the press claiming it was “every type of maniac and psychopath” that had targeted them, “no matter the colour of the pin on their chest”. However, worse was yet to come. \n\nOn the morning of the 13th April, a wave of mass assaults on polls within areas with strong party-line opinions quickly took over the headlines. In one video posted on Twitter (formerly known as X), two men can be seen trying to hack down a power-line connecting the station to outside power, after placing a number of heavy logs on the outside of the door into the polling station. Another video showed one woman walking into a polling station and ripping up the records of all that had voted so far, and who was eligible for each polling station. Throughout the day, the number arrested by the police and Gendarmerie through the day for such actions grew to the point that a number of army personnel had to fill in for the police, who were too busy looking after the arrested. The sight of armed soldiers on the street did little, and so it came to the firefighters and hoses to finally solve the disorder. Close to 16,200 people have so far been recorded as of yet today (15:00 on the 14th April) for such offences, with many tracked down using facial recognition systems installed by candidate Gerald Darmanin during his tenure as Minister of the Interior. \n\nToday, the 14th, has not seen the end of the rallies, as many remain adamant that their candidate was unduly robbed of their rightful place in the second round. In total, 6 different candidates were considered the ‘most voted-for candidate’ across the regions - Corsica voted for Jean Lasselle, for the 6th of the bunch. The first-round’s highest percentage was a demonstrably-small 17.87%, for Marine Le Pen. The second-choice, for 17.43%, was Jean-Luc Melenchon. This means that it will be two quite ‘extremist’ parties to be chosen from for the general populous for the second round. The biggest loser was, at 15.56% and less than 2% off, Gerald Darmanin. Of the 31.131.424 votes cast, 7.55% were blank or for abstentions, and turnout was a very low 63.2% - either of these could have easily brought another of the candidates, even Véran (12.62%) and Zemmour (11.02%) into the next round, the latter plus Darmanin calling blood. As for other candidates, Jean Lassalle’s share of 5.23%, ahead of the Republicans by just 9.655 votes, another historic step in the downfall of the older Republican and Socialist parties. \n\n|Presidential Candidate;|Party;|% Vote;|\n:--|:--|:--|\n|Fabian Roussel|French Communist Party|1.95%|\n|**Jean-Luc Melenchon**|**France Insurmountable**|**17.43%**|\n|Marine Tondelier|The Ecologists|3.45%|\n|Olivier Faure|Socialist Party|2.11%|\n|Olivier Véran|Ensemble|12.62%|\n|Annie Genevard|The Republicans|5.21%|\n|Jean Lassalle|Résistons|5.23%|\n|Gerald Darmanin|Regardons Pas En Arrière|15.56%|\n|**Marine Le Pen**|**Rassemblement National**|**17.87%**|\n|Eric Zemmour|Reconquete|11.02%|\n|Blank & Absentations| |7.55%|\n|Total ;| |100%|\n|Turnout ;| |63.22%|\n\n[(Chart of Information)]( https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/1170111536644231288/1178132361339211826/image.png?ex=65750843&is=65629343&hm=197f705f294408dca910cc89e8497cfe76fda5b32a47e0b972f61ea93285d73c& )\n\n***\n\nNow, it will be Melenchon vs Le Pen in the second round.
