REACTION FROM MELENCHON HQ
Sophie Rauszer, a Mélenchon staffer, said: “We did by far the best campaign.” Another campaign volunteer refused to concede, saying: “We are not sure of the results as it depends on polling stations.” Right now everyone is head down, touching their phones vigorously. Data connnection is very slow, including for the TVs in the headquarters.

One exit poll has her tied for first, the other has her a close second. Either one and she goes to the runoff anyway.
