Election day in France

French news outlets were reporting turnout around 70% a few hours before polls were to close.  Here's a link to video from France 24 - http://www.france24.com/en/20120422-france-voters-presidential-election-polling-station-first-round-arrondisement

The main twitter hashtag for election news has been #France2012 but some tweeters are using the hashtag #radiolondres to get around the blackout on reporting election returns before polling stations close. However, Belgium's Le Soir was posting some early results: http://www.lesoir.be/dossiers_speciaux/special2/2012-04-21/decouvrez-les-premiers-resultats-910747.php
