The first round of the regional marked by a record abstention, the French spend without counting and the Parisians work more than the others.


Dear readers,

This June 21 is a busy day.

We are the day after the first round of regional, today is the first day of summer and the music festival.

As you can imagine, this morning we will focus on the first of these subjects.

The conclusion after yesterday's results is simple: ballot after ballot, French people's interest in the elections is shrinking.

The minority of voters who went to vote put the right in front and did not really support the presidential majority - which did not even manage to qualify everywhere in the second round.

The RN tsunami expected by some did not take place and the left did not fare too badly.

In any case, the week promises to be rich in twists and turns.

Happy reading, have a great day (the longest of the year)!
