You wouldn’t know it from the press coverage here, but apparently there’s an election in the States today. You’d think they’d have heard about it. Seriously, you don’t need to speak French (or English English, for that matter) to get a sense of the wall-to-wall coverage:
Le Monde
I could link to the front pages of the fifty or so newspapers I’ve got bookmarked, but the short version is that the entire world is watching. Go vote.
