One round was enough. French MEP Raphaël Glucksmann has won the primary of the French social-democratic camp, taking 66.17% of the vote in the first round of a contest that drew 120,787 voters, the organisers announced.
The leader of the Place publique party is far ahead of Socialist Party chief Olivier Faure, who secured 14% of the vote. Ségolène Royal, a prominent Socialist figure and former presidential candidate in 2007, who had hoped to spring a surprise, finished third with less than 8% of the vote.
