How do elections work in France? Interested politicians must get 500 signatures from “sponsors” There is no electoral college- French citizens directly determine the vote If no candidate (party) gets at least 50% of the vote, there is a second round of elections This has never happened (Charles de Gaulle came closest in 1965 with 44%) The second round is between the top two candidates from the first round This time, Round 1 is April 23, 2017 How do you vote? You must be 18 years old and a French citizen Voting takes place on Sundays, from 8:00 am – 8:00 pm

Current President: Francois Hollande Elected in 2012 (with 51.7% of the vote) Socialist Party Regulated open markets Legalized same-sex marriage Withdrew troops present in Afghanistan Removed citizenship from supposed terrorists (which has affected his approval rating)

Who are the main candidates? Francois Fillon Republican (center-right) Served under President Sarkozy as Prime Minister of France “We have to change the system!”

Fillon’s political platform PRO Traditional family values Nationalism Increased retirement age (65) Private jobs > public sector jobs ANTI Public spending High taxes Full rights for same-sex couples Immigration + Islam

Who are the main candidates? Marine Le Pen National Front (far right) Member of European Parliament since 2004, and President of NF Party since 2011 “It would be the comeback of France!”

Fillon’s political platform PRO Free sovereign nations within Europe Civil unions for same-sex couples Energy diversification (alternate sources besides oil) Public interest and utilities jobs ANTI European Union Immigration Corporate tax (flexible rate based on how profits are shared- whether to shareholders or to profit sharing and investment) Multiculturalism

Questions for Discussion What is the current reception/polling percentage for each candidate? Who do you believe will win the election in 2017, and why? How could this election affect France (and possibly other locations)? How can you compare the French election to the recent US election?
