2008 Marseille municipal election
Municipal and mayoral elections were held in Marseille in March 2008, at the same time as other French municipal elections. The incumbent Mayor of the city, Jean-Claude Gaudin (UMP) faced Socialist candidate and Senator Jean-Noël Guérini. While polls in January and February indicated that Gaudin was safe, later polls showed the race tied and the 3rd sector of the city, a marginal UMP area, was likely to decide the election. Elections in Marseille depend not on the number of votes polled but the number of sectors won (there are 8 sectors). The same system applies in Lyon and Paris.
Gaudin was re-elected and will serve as mayor until 2014.

gollark: The online safety bill is intensely awful.
gollark: This is somewhat bad.
gollark: Anyway, the incentives of TikTok and stuff are to drive the maximum amount of user time to show adverts, regardless of whether they actually want or benefit from this.
gollark: Ah, yes, I remember reading the TVTropes page and deciding that it sounded bad.
gollark: No.
