Paris, 8pm: OFFICIAL - FRANCOIS HOLLANDE ELECTED PRESIDENT OF FRANCE

Becomes first Socialist President since Francois Mitterrand left office in 1988. 

Incroyable.

52% of the vote to Sarko’s 48%. He’s the first incumbent in France in three decades to not win re-election and the ninth eurozone leader to fall in two years. 

Extras, for anybody interested: Hollande’s election team has/had a Tumblr, for the French speakers on here. Also, earlier this week I wrote about the far-right’s role in French politics this election. Hollande may have won, but we haven’t seen the last of Le Pen and the Front National this year…
