Emmanuel Macron, 39, is elected the youngest president of France! Macron gets 66%, Le Pen 34%, of the vote
Macron Decisively Defeats Le Pen in French Presidential Race, https://www.nytimes.com/2017/05/07/world/europe/emmanuel-macron-france-election-marine-le-pen.html, May 7th 2017
A short extract from the article:
"Mr. Macron’s victory offered significant relief to the European Union, which Ms. Le Pen had threatened to leave. His platform to loosen labor rules, make France more competitive globally and deepen ties with the European Union is also likely to reassure a global financial market that was jittery at the prospect of a Le Pen victory."
Mr. Macron got 66 percent of the vote, and Ms Le Pen got 34 percent, from nearly 100 percent of the vote counted.
Ravi: One wishes France's young (39 years old) new president-elect, Mr. Macron, all the very best as he confronts the challenges faced by France and tries to improve the lives of the French people.
