00:00Let's start with Marine Le Pen's constituency, this one here, you can see that she picked up 58.14% of votes,
00:08which essentially means that there will be no second round for her seat, she won it outright.
00:12This is Laurent Wauquiez, he's the former head of the Les Républicains, the conservative party,
00:19picking up 36.8%, but you see right on his heels there is the national rally candidate
00:25and the new Popular Front candidate here also making it to the second round,
00:30which means that this will be one of many three-horse races that will be decided next Sunday.
00:37You also have François Hollande's first district in Corrèze, he picked up 37.63%,
00:45that means that he'll be going head-to-head with the other two candidates from Les Républicains,
00:51the conservatives and the national rally, for his seat.
00:54And then you have some other individual scores, this is Elisabeth Bond, the former Prime Minister,
01:00picking up 28.8% of votes in her constituency.
01:05Fabien Roussel, who is the head of the Communist Party, picking up 31.4% in his constituency,
01:15he also will be to the second round.
01:17And Sébastien Chenout, who is the spokesperson for the National Rally Party,
01:22well, he also won his seat outright, which means he won't need to go to a run-off for his seat,
01:29one of, I suppose, quite a few seats that have already been decided as of this first round of voting, Nadia.
