A first round of voting in France’s local election has seen another big increase in support for the far right National Front. Exit polls give the party run by Marine Le Pen nearly a quarter of the vote, however it’s behind the mainstream central-right UMP party of Nicolas Sarkozy. Hugh Scofield is in Paris.

法国地方选举的第一轮投票表明极右派国民阵线的支持率上升,民调显示马琳·勒庞领导的政党获得近四分之一的支持,然而仍落后于主流的中间右派尼古拉斯·萨科齐的人民运动联盟。休·斯科菲尔德在巴黎报道。

It’s another big vote for the French far right, following municipal and European elections last year. In this first round of departmental or county council elections, nationwide 24.5% of voters chose the National Front. It is a figure that shows yet again, how Marine Le Pen’s strategy of building a system of local organization and shutting down the party’s overtly racist elements is paying off. However opinion polls had suggested that the far right could have done better - even emerging as the top party in the election. That didn’t happen, which has some calls for cheer for mainstream opposition party led by former President Nicolas Sarkozy.

这是自去年的市政和欧洲选举后法国极右派的另一次重大选举,在第一轮的郡议会选举中,全国有24.5%的选民支持国民阵线。这个数字再次表明马琳·勒庞建立当地组织系统和结束该党公开的种族主义成分的策略收到了成效。但民调显示极右派原本可以做得更好,甚至可以在选举中遥遥领先。但这一局面没有发生,因此有些人对前总统尼古拉斯·萨科齐领导的主流在野党喝彩。

Martin Krocsoul reports.
