France's Socialists choose between Martine Aubry and François Hollande

French opposition held the second round of voting for a candidate to meet with Nicolas Sarkozy in the presidential election of 2012

French socialists and supporters of the party elected its candidate for president next year, which should be a clash with the besieged Tory MP Nicolas Sarkozy.

The main opposition party is required to run an election to choose its standard-bearer, like many French people worry about the high level of debt, spending cuts in education, a low economic growth and persistent unemployment.

The contest is between the party leader, Martine Aubry, and his predecessor, Francois Hollande. Aubry is best known for introducing legislation that created the French 35-hour week at the end of 1990, while the Netherlands is considered a moderate party that promotes greater integration with Europe.

Aubry and Holland were selected last week to six candidates in the first phase of an unprecedented election primary where more than 2 million cast.

The main American style, the first of its kind in France, was designed in part to help overcome years of socialist dissent in its ranks. It is open to voters beyond the party, although certain conditions.

earlier this year, most polls have shown that the best hope of overthrowing the socialist Sarkozy, Dominique Strauss-Kahn, who led the IMF until he was arrested in the U.S. States in May accused of sexually assaulting a clean New York hotel. Prosecutors later dropped the case, but the reputation of Mr. Strauss-Kahn and his presidential ambitions were severely damaged.

Holland, who took first place in the first round, has received expressions of support of the four candidates who lost last Sunday, a tacit sign that a Socialist victory in the presidential election is its highest priority.

recent surveys suggest that either this spring or Holland Aubry could beat Sarkozy, whose popularity ratings have remained around 30% for months. But the president is a strong advocate and feels an inclination to the right in the French electorate.

Holland, 57, voted in the central region of Correze, where the head of the regional government that represents the National Assembly, lower house of parliament. Aubry, 61, voted in the northern city of Lille, where he is mayor.
Both Aubry and Holland

cut that debt is a priority, but they stuck to the line of the Socialist Party on issues such as protection of citizens against the vagaries of financial markets and increased tax the rich.


the party's candidate will face questions about how to keep France competitive at a time when slow growth in government expenditure has been contained, while emerging economies like China , India and Brazil are booming.
