French voters will go to the polls tomorrow in an election that polls suggest will bring an end to President Nicolas Sarkozy’s Presidency. Socialist challenger Francois Hollande has held a steady lead in most opinion polls during the contest. He has promised a shift in economic emphasis from austerity to growth. Sarkozy has amped up his attacks on Mr. Hollande in the final hours before voting begins, arguing that he has little executive experience.
