French elections: ‘Le Pen has a real chance to win’
Emmanuel Macron has won the first round of the French elections but he faces his far-right rival, Marine Le Pen, for a second time at the end of April.
Rim-Sarah Alouane is a researcher in constitutional law, discrimination, religious freedom and civil liberties in France. She tells Newsday: “More than ever today Marine Le Pen has a real chance to win, this should worry us all."
