The ‘astronomical level of abstention’ is good news! Let’s hope it continues.
Marine Le Pen described the record-low voter turnout - a projected 66% abstention - as a "civic disaster".
She blamed the results on the government's inability to inspire faith in political institutions. "Let's face it, the results were marked by a torrential and also historic abstention of nearly 70% due to the mistrust of an electoral system, which leaves voters with the feeling that nothing can change, that everything has been confiscated," she said.
