Contributing sentiments towards policy:

52% : They often matter more domestically than they do in Brussels or Strasbourg, given the diffuse nature of power and decision-making in the EU.
50% : The outcome of that French vote might matter more for the future direction of the EU than the results of the European parliament vote on Sunday.
49% : But they are not taking over the assembly, let alone the EU.
49% : Snap elections could install Le Pen, a radical Eurosceptic with a protectionist and nationalist agenda at odds with EU membership, in the prime minister's office within weeks.
44% : Macron could argue that in France's vertical political system, where the president holds most of the power, an RN government would not do much damage to the country or to the EU.
43% : The outcome of those shifted the dial of EU politics to the right, but not in a decisive way.
38% : To many people in France and elsewhere in the EU, it looks like a desperate throw of the dice.
