FRANCE 24 English published this video item, entitled “Setbacks for Le Pen, Macron parties in French regional vote” – below is their description.
#France’s #FarRight led by Marine #LePen insisted Monday it could recover from a disappointing first round of #regional #polls marked by a strong result from the traditional right and another feeble performance by President Emmanuel #Macron’s ruling party. The vote on Sunday was widely watched as the last national electoral test ahead of presidential and #parliamentary elections next year which polls currently show as being a close race between Le Pen and Macron.

In This Story: Vote
Voting is a method for a group, such as a meeting or an electorate, in order to make a collective decision or express an opinion usually following discussions, debates or election campaigns. Democracies elect holders of high office by voting. Residents of a place represented by an elected official are called “constituents”, and those constituents who cast a ballot for their chosen candidate are called “voters”. There are different systems for collecting votes, but while many of the systems used in decision-making can also be used as electoral systems, any which cater for proportional representation can only be used in elections.
In smaller organizations, voting can occur in different ways. Formally via ballot to elect others for example within a workplace, to elect members of political associations or to choose roles for others. Informally voting could occur as a spoken agreement or as a verbal gesture like a raised hand or electronically.
