Emmanuel Macron will face a run-off against Marine Le Pen in the second round

Emmanuel Macron will face Marine Le Pen in the second round

We hear reaction to projections from the first round of the presidential election in France.  Based on a sample of ballots the projections suggest President Emmanuel Macron will face the far-right leader Marine Le Pen in a run-off in two weeks time.  

Also, Imran Khan is ousted as Pakistan’s Prime Minister after a vote of no confidence, hours after his party tried to delay it. And we go to Mexico where the public has the opportunity to remove a sitting president today, in a recall referendum on Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador.
