Jews were delighted to see that Le Pen only came in second place in local elections.
But this train has just now gaining steam.
When the first results were released for the French local elections, the French Jewish Umbrella organization CRIF tweeted a sigh of relief: “According to main polling results, the National Front Party is not the biggest party in France.”
Indeed, the far-right National Front headed by Marine Le Pen came second with about 25% of the votes, after the right-wing UMP, which scored 30%. The ruling Socialist Party lagged behind, with only 21%. The results are not final.
A second round of voting is due to take place on Sunday, but analysts assess that there will be no significant change in the results. In any case, the Socialist Party cannot ameliorate its score, as in many places its candidates simply did not make it to the second round.
The virtual Jewish sigh of relief is only partial.
The National Front came second, not first, but one cannot qualify its results as a defeat, on the contrary. Tours University researcher Sylvain Crepon, an expert in political science and the French far Right, told The Jerusalem Post that though the results of the Le Pen’s party are “less spectacular than anticipated in polls, it continues to grow stronger.”
“Many polls predicted that the National Front would become the biggest party in France and that they would secure at least 30% of the vote. That did not happen. But it is important to examine the results on a larger scale. The far Right party had good results at the European elections; it had good results at the municipal elections, and now they are in second place at the local elections. I expect this tendency to continue at the December regional elections.”
This isn’t even a setback.
People voted for Jew Sarkozy’s Jew UMP because they want something right-wing but are afraid of the “far right.” When they remember that Sarkozy isn’t right-wing at all (French have very short memories, it seems), everyone who voted Jewkozy is going to vote Le Pen.
