Emmanuel Macron has been declared the President of France after early vote counts:
France has a new president. Emmanuel Macron – an independent centrist who has never held elected office – has won a resounding victory over far-right, nationalist Marine Le Pen in the most important French presidential race in decades, according to early vote counts by the French Interior Ministry.
In early returns, Macron had won an estimated 65 percent of the vote to Le Pen's nearly 35 percent, according to the French Interior Ministry. Le Pen has already called to congratulate Macron and conceded defeat to a gathering of her supporters in Paris.

The no-go zones are places where the law enforcement will be attacked at all times and crimes go largely unsolved because no one has seen anything.. This enables criminal gangs and drug trade. Ambulance personnel gets stones thrown at them. And normal people may be physically intimidated. Some areas even have their form of patrolling Sharia thugs. This doesn't happen to everyone, everytime. But it has become a regular occurrence that were not there before. The phenomena exist regardless of what people believe.
Anecdotes will not negate statistical trends. Nor will mainstream media propaganda.
