Here you are: results from France interior minister which is in charge of organizing elections at the national level.

The only missing number is non registered citizens. You get it from France national statistics agency (INSEEE). On march 1st 2017, you had 45.678 million registered voters, and you get the number of 61.621 million nationals from 2014 census. Then you still have to dig statistics to find the number of citizen (people of more than 18 years old and that were not deprived from their civil rights) and get the number of 9%.

The Maginot Line was largely successful in repelling direct assault. German forces were forced to go around it in the interests of time.
The meaningful difference between Dien Bien Phu and the nuclear plants is the possibility of rapid response by external forces to assist the garrison, and this time la Légion étrangère would be available for intervention rather than invested, as would the la Gendarmerie nationale.

Multiple zones are needed, including zone de sécurité, zone d'exclusion.

The problem the Fukushima events showed evidently is that you do not have to make the nuclear reactor go critical and explode to cause a major radiological catastrophe: you just have to cut the power to the control room and safety system that prevents the reactor to sustain and limit its heating-cooling cycle.

Therefore protection against any intrusion or incident is paramount to the safety of the plant, therefore security should be airtight.

Parent post has it right: the Gendarmerie Nationale is in charge of the protection from intrusion into nuclear plants and other facilities and even NBC protection.

Nuclear plants are also surrounded by restricted air zone enforced by SAM and fast jet interception. See this (french) animation:

Well, I would have said that making filling in a tax return over a secure connection platform-specific was pretty tricky, before trying to fill in my French tax return. (And with Windows you have to be an administrator for their java app to work properly.) As I said, just providing a certificate as a .exe is a good way to make using that certificate without Windows relatively difficult.

See here for the .exe certificate example (link 2).

La gendarmerie nationale is not the same thing as la police nationale--the latter of whom I would call "the French police". The gendarmerie would be better described as "the French military police", since they are considered part of the armed forces whereas the police are civilian--although they do also take on roles analagous to those of US State troopers.

The reference is here. I must admit I'm touched by all these offers of help: I only mentioned it to make a general point...

(Pause to look for little box)

Well, I set it to 10pt, and what I got is nearer 7pt, but it is a lot more readable than the last version, and it does fill up the page (the mini version was less than 4" across. Why?) Thanks for the various suggestions.

Mind sharing a URL?

I don't know... isn't that dangerous nowadays? Oh, OK, since it's you: www.interieur.gouv.fr. The page as is comes out minute, the 'printable' version is no better, but the text only one (which still has images, err...) seems to work OK. I had another one the other day where Mozilla printed it as light grey on white, and konqueror printed it with the side bars on top of the text.

Webmaster, not slashdot

Sure, but when people keep saying that Mozilla is the world's greatest browser, I think that the fact it doesn't work with a lot of sites (even if it is the webmasters' fault) is relevant.
