FRANCE UPDATE: The near-final list of candidates who are in the French runoffs is out. Two days ago, 311 districts were going to have 3-way or 4-way runoffs. Then, 200+ candidates dropped out to block far-right. So: There'll be "just" 91 such runoffs this coming Sunday.

Thanks as always for your detailed and succinct reporting. When you say 90ish runoffs, is that total for all types (as in, 90 runoffs with two or more ppl or 90 total 3+ person runoffs with another set of 2 person runoffs in addition to that)?

Le Monde breaks it down amazingly well:
—Left candidates:
132 dropped out
5 did not drop out in districts with an RN threat
—Macronists:
81 dropped out
16 didn't in "threat" districts
—Conservatives didn't care:
3 dropped out
12 didn't
