The Franklin Times -
Nicolas Sarkozy won a critical victory in the 2nd Round of the French Presidential Election. Sarkozy, of the Union for a Popular Movement, defeated the Socialist Party candidate, Ms. Segolene Royal, who had been vying to become the first woman president of France. Sarkozy's 53% to 47% electoral margin was seen as an impressive win for the conservative movement in France. In the campaign, Sarkozy advocated drastic free market reforms to combat a sluggish French economy and to fight the 8.3% unemployment rate. Key to his reform package is the effort to end France's 35 hour work week. The election also signified a deep defeat for the Socialist Party, which has now lost the last three elections.

We of the Free Consevatives Party would like to first congratulate the conservatives in France for their victory. Secondly we would like to ask that if the conservatives are doing well in France, how much better could we do here in the Franklin States of America?
We are willing to work for the people and give them the representation that they need. The Free Conservatives will fight for you and stomp out the competition!
