Voters unsure as France’s election campaign begins

FRANCE’S presidential election campaign officially began yesterday with candidates unveiling television and radio spots to try and win over the vast army of undecided voters.

The twelve hopefuls have been sparring for months appearing regularly in the media and making campaign stops around France ahead of the first-round vote on April 22.

Polls show right-wing candidate Nicolas Sarkozy has a comfortable lead over his main rival, socialist Segolene Royal.
