The French are. Parisians, not so much.

Or at least 2.5% of them are not waking up based on voter turnout. They do the same thing in the US with low voter turnout elections. Put your constitutional amendments and tax increases on the ballot in some random February election and have 5% of the voters turn out and approve everything. Louisiana does it every year.
