Leftists poised for victory in French elections

None

French voters are choosing a new parliament on Sunday that will determine how far Socialist President Francois Hollande can go with his push for government-sponsored stimulus around Europe.

 

Hollande's Socialists and their allies dominated the first round last week and are expected to win the most seats in the 577-seat National Assembly. Former President Nicolas Sarkozy's conservatives have led it for a decade. (AP)
