Ultimate encouragement before the fateful moment. Monday, April 18, Marine Le Pen offered a long crowd bath, Calvados, Normandy: “I do not give up anything, it’s you who give me power and strength.” A conquered ground, where militants and inhabitants came to seek selfies and deliver their concerns about their ends.

“She’s a campaign in Charente,” Gabriel Attal, spokesman for the government, to say that she goes to the places where she gets high scores. “I like the Charentaises”, in a candidate, while a compact crowd crowded in the market of St. Pierre-en-Auge – where she got 35% of the votes in the first round, the April 10th. “I come get the strength of the people, yes I will win!”, Promised the far-right candidate.

Marine Le Pen is then part of isolate to prepare the Wednesday debate, which will be broadcast on TF1-France 2, broadcast by BFM-TV, CNEWS, LCI and FranceInfo, and animated by Gilles Bouleau and Lea Salamé. Where has she gone ? “State Secret”, maintains his team.

But in parallel, the national gathering candidate (RN) intends to activate an anti-macron front by referring the social and democratic violence on the side of the opponent.
