We have known since yesterday (April 10, 2022) the poster for the second round of the French presidential election. It will pit the outgoing head of state Emmanuel Macron against the president of the National Rally, Marine Le Pen. One of the great lessons of the evening is also abstention, which reached 26.31%, ie the highest rate in a presidential election after that of the first round in 2002. How can such a low turnout be explained? Who are the abstainers? What to expect for the second round?
