Definition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Runoff (noun)<\/strong>: A second round of voting to determine the winner in an election or contest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Don\u2019t confuse with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To run off<\/strong>: to run away, to flee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Runoffs in the News<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In France, an independent centrist and a far-right candidate head toward a runoff election for President of the 3rd 4th 5th Republic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In homage to the US, France has combined a woman and a populist into one candidate. Vive la France!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

French election guide I<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Step 1<\/strong>. Gather 10 to 30 presidential candidates. The more the merrier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 2<\/strong>. Compare the scandals. What can you tolerate from your future prez? Corruption? Sex? Bad breath?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 3<\/strong>. Vote via a sophisticated system of folded papers. It\u2019s hack proof, Comrade.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

French election guide II<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Step 4<\/strong>. Wait for the runoff<\/strong>. With 10+ candidates, the math suggests nobody will win a majority in round 1.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 5<\/strong>. Vote again. If last round meant anything, it\u2019s that this round means everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Step 6<\/strong>. If the sh*t hits the fan, run off<\/strong>?<\/p>\n\n\n\n
