French voters head to the polls for one of the most consequential presidential elections the country has seen in decades.
Twelve candidates, including incumbent Emmanuel Macron, are running for the top job. If none of them receives more than 50% of the ballots, the top two candidates will face each other in a runoff on April 24. But a second round is all but guaranteed -- no French presidential candidate has ever won in the first round under the current system.Macron is seeking to become the first French President to win re-election since Jacques Chirac in 2002.
Experts believe his strategy was to avoid the political mudslinging as long as possible to brandish his image as the most presidential of all the candidates.Le Pen, for her part, has run a more mainstream campaign this year compared to her last attempt to win the presidency.
