Paris, April 20, 2007 - France is going to the polls on Sunday but most of the voters have not yet made their mind whether to vote or not and if to vote whom to vote even on the final day of campaign.

The three front-runners to replace Jacques Chirac are all promising to restore the country's sense of direction after a prolonged period of social and economic upheaval as per Reuters.

Right-wing candidate Nicolas Sarkozy is favourite to win Sunday's first ballot - but without the necessary 50 per cent of the vote to declare outright victory.

Instead he is expected to face a May 3rd final run-off with either Socialist Ségolène Royal or the centre-right politician and part-time farmer Francois Bayrou, whose late showing has offered voters a "third way".

Latest polls show Mr Sarkozy ahead with a predicted 30 per cent of the vote compared with Ms Royal's 25 per cent and Mr Bayrou creeping towards 20 per cent.
One poll claimed Ms Royal was closing the gap on Mr Sarkozy as the three front-runners entered a final round of campaigning armed with fresh promises to get France back on its feet.

Of the rest of the dozen candidates, only the National Front's Jean-Marie Le Pen has caught people's attention. Mr Le Pen, who is said to be in line for 15 per cent of the vote, has declared that Mr Sarkozy, whose father is Hungarian, is "not French enough" to be president.
