The campaign is now officially over and our media are not allowed to provide opinion polls anymore...until the official results of the first ballot, tomorrow at 20:00.

As usual it's a big controversy over here, because it seems unfair that "the ones in the know" are privileged while the common citizens will have to wait until 20:00 (because polling stations close at 20:00 in Paris), especially given that the first results are supposed to be "knwon" by journalists and political teams at about 18:00.

Will Belgian and Swiss media provide them?

Leaks are to be expected and on twitter the resistance is already set up with hashtag #RadioLondres. "Les Français parlent aux Français" was the famous broadcast program in the 1940's that allowed the FFL, who had followed De Gaulle in London,  and the Resistance in France to communicate.

Several twittos are already trying coded messages for tomorrow. Some are funny and creative, others are not.
