In the UK, Labour has a massive majority with less than 34% of the vote
If there are only three seats, and vote goes like this:
Seat 1 Labour 34%, Tories 28%, Several other parties add up to 38% with none more than 15%.
Seat 2 Labour 35%, Tories 27%, Several other parties add up to 38% with none more than 15%.
Seat 3 Labour 33%, Tories 29%, Several other parties add up to 38% with none more than 15%.
Then Labour would win every seat and have 34% of the vote. There is nothing nefarious about that.

Ok. Was never planning to do so.
For posters who claim to not be globalists y’all sure get worked up and concerned about elections in other countries.

Then you aren’t smart. Anyone paying attention saw this result coming. RN was never going to get an actual majority with 3/4ths of France’s political parties actively cooperating to prevent them from doing so.

two rounds elections are a fricking joke, elections should always be a one shot deal.

What about globalists do you not get? Is it the world wide redistribution of wealth and world wide unlimited immigration?

Why? Plurality governance sucks balls.

Major issue there is that Tory cared only about London and Reformed split their vote

Election stolen in France
This is an excellent prequel of our upcoming election in Nov.
What will our country do when the election is stolen again?
Will we sit back and obediently accept it (again) or will we demand accountability?

because the second round gives the establishment a chance to buy everybody to make sure the outsiders never win.

It also allows constituencies to actually elect a representative with 50% + 1 of the vote.
But then again I prefer representative government over plurality-induced gridlock.

How naive can you be?

Concerning yourself to the point of being angry about France’s election makes you a globalist just to a different end.

Blue check seems like a retard. The fundamentals of the election were known ahead of time, and were very predictable.
Only very dumb Americans whose entire exposure to European elections comes from random blue checks didn’t see this coming. RN never had a real path to a majority this election.
Comparing Euro elections to French parliamentary elections is nonsensical. Turnout and politics for it are completely different.

Not nearly as naive as someone who thinks 30% of the vote should win an election.

If the the people of a country choose to not participate, it is their own deal, the people voting and gaining a majority of the vote, should win and get control of their government, a one round vote should be the universal way to declare a winner.

Your retort is shite. The guy simply pays attention to French election because he’s concerned about what is coming to America…the “canary in a coal mine” theory.
