We begin in France, where the presidential election is headed for run-off between incumbant Nicolas Sarkozy and socialist challenger Francois Hollande. As expected, they've emerged from Sunday's first round of voting as the top contenders. Francois Hollande narrowly beat the current president and there was also a strong showing from far-right candidate Marine Le Pen. Hollande and Sarkozy will now face each other in a head-to-head run-off on May 6th.
