With less than two weeks to go to the first round of the French presidential election on the 23 April 2017 the left-wing candidate Jean-Luc Mélenchon and the conservative contender Fillon were both at 18% in the polls - behind Le Pen of the Front National and Macron with his En marche! movement, with 22% support apiece.
