A couple of interesting figures from Eric Dupin:
- If you include the canceled or blank vote (voters putting a white piece of paper into the ballot box), 50.8 percent of the electorate voted for Sarkozy this Sunday, not 53 percent.
- Working your way up the age demographic, Sarkozy's percentage of the vote increases. It only reaches 50 percent at age 50 and skyrockets from there. In an aging population like France's, he wins.
