...You have to be resident in the UK to vote there? <br /><br />Four 1/2 years! That's a really long time. I had a couple of times when I didn't go back to Canada for three years and I thought that was long! <br /><br />I think the French system where you pick a paper is a good idea. That way you there is no confusion with ticks and crosses. The envelopes need to be bigger though - the papers were too big and the envelopes were falling apart from people stuffing these big papers in them. <br /><br />My town voted in the same major in the premier tour so it was all over for me in the first week. No, I don't actually live in Bordeaux but a suburb right beside Bordeaux and my town voted in the same guy on the premier tour just like Bordeaux did. <br /><br />Something I did notice about the FN, though - there is much less support for the FN in the south-west of France than out in eastern France. I wonder why this is? Do you have any ideas? In my town they didn't even get enough support to present themselves for election.

You can also "voter blanc" ie put nothing in the envelope, or maybe a white bit of paper. At my old job, they for some reason made us all vote to confirm the new unit head. The majority of us voted blanc and she was so pissed off she didn't take the job. Which was stupid and petty if you ask me, since I for one had never met the woman, so of course I didn't vote "yes" or "no".
