France's Royal warns of violence as Sarkozy tipped to win.
PARIS, May 4, 2007 (AFP) - Socialist Segolene Royal warned Friday that France could slide into violence if Nicolas Sarkozy wins the presidency as the rightwinger extended his poll lead on the final day of the hard fought campaign.
Royal, seeking to become France's first woman president, said she was "issuing an alert" that a Sarkozy victory in the election on Sunday could... "trigger violence and brutalities across the country."
"His candidacy is dangerous. That is why I am asking voters to think twice," Royal told RTL radio on the last day of campaigning in one of the most exciting elections in decades.
