As a European this comes as a huge relief, especially given the poorly-timed email leak (with Russian names in the metadata).

Here's to hoping that Europe can continue working together and begin to reform itself, and not tear itself apart like some of our American 'allies' on the (alt-)right would like.

Lots of challenges ahead, but we wouldn't want it to be too easy now would we?

I'm curious how things work? This is just a prediction? Is this an official exit poll?

Estimate of voting booth all around. Probably gonna shift a bit until midnight but not by much and surely not enough to modify the results; and so far it seems Macron is going from 65.1 to 65.5.

Any 12 year old kiddie can change meta data on files. Faking meta data to place false clues is intelligence service 101 as documented by many NSA/CIA leaks.
