Le Figaro has a detailed
set of election returns from last Sunday's vote, with percentages
broken down by department (roughly, county) and for Paris,
arrondissement (roughly, neighbourhood). I don't have the technology
to do a cool
red/blue map, so I made a little list (below).
No big surprises. In general the wealthier arrondissements to the west support Sarkozy, the immigrant and less expensive areas to the east support Royal. The urban middle is a pretty even mix. As an American I mostly understand "Sarkozy: conservative, Royal: liberal" but in fact it's much more subtle and complex than that. Any by US standards, they're all flaming liberals.
Sarkozy Royal Sarkozy Royal
1eme 39 28 11eme 26 41
2eme 31 35 12eme 32 32
3eme 29 37 13eme 27 37
4eme 34 32 14eme 30 34
5eme 33 32 15eme 41 24
6eme 44 24 16eme 64 11
7eme 56 15 17eme 46 23
8eme 58 14 18eme 23 42
9eme 35 32 19eme 28 40
10eme 25 42 20eme 23 42
Total 35 32
I left out Bayrou and Le Pen, the 3rd and 4th runners. Bayrou outpolled Royal in the 7th, 8th, and 16th! If facism is your thing, the 18th had the most votes for Le Pen at 5.2%. It also had some of the fewest for Sarkozy; go figure.
