Sarkozy loses ground to rival

FRENCH President Nicolas Sarkozy has lost ground to his Socialist rival in the past two weeks of campaigning, an opinion poll showed yesterday, predicting front-runner Francois Hollande would easily win the May 6 presidential election runoff.

The poll for LH2-Yahoo showed Sarkozy losing 3 percentage points to 23 percent while Hollande slipped 1.5 percentage points but remained well ahead on 30.5 percent of voting intentions for the April 22 first round.

If the runoff were to be held now, Hollande would get 58 percent and Sarkozy 42 percent.
