It would be a good idea, but historically centrist liberals will team up with conservatives to stop the left before the opposite. Let’s see what happens in France.

Fwiw around 70 macronist 3rd place candidates have dropped out compared 110 popular front ones, which is roughly proportional to their votes.
Please stop calling them conservative call the animal with its own name: Fascists
