Twitter & #Radio Londres : Tricherie électorale ou vrai défi démocratique Annoncé comme le lieu où serait contournée la loi électorale pour annoncer à l’avance les résultats des votes, le fil Twitter #radiolondres a été un tsunami de messages et de chiffres. Simple pochade numérique sans conséquence ? Pas si sûr. Si les partis politiques ont au final fait une campagne plutôt plan-plan sur les médias sociaux, les internautes se sont en revanche immiscés et défoulés comme jamais dans le déroulement du 1er tour de l’élection présidentielle. Twitter a particulièrement été à la pointe de la sédition bon enfant en accueillant deux fils (#radiolondres et #icilondres) entièrement dédiés à celles et ceux voulant annoncer des informations liées au scrutin sans tomber sous le coup de l’article L 52-2 du code électoral qui interdit de divulguer des résultats partiels et/ou définitifs sous peine de sanctions allant jusqu’à 75 000 euros. Envie de transparence Guillaume Champeau lance son appel en donnant les codes à utiliser ! Quand la loi twitte moins vite que son ombre !

Home Sur internet, des résultats détournés sur #RadioLondres Pendant que les télévisions ne pouvaient donner que les chiffres de la participation avant 20 heures, les réseaux sociaux ont rivalisé d'imagination pour faire circuler les résultats et flirter avec la loi. Dimanche en fin d'après-midi, il valait mieux être connecté à Internet qu'être devant sa télévision. Tandis que les chaînes diffusaient en boucle les premières estimations de participation, «nous attendrons 20 heures pour diffuser les résultats, c'est la loi», expliquait ainsi David Pujadas sur France 2 à 19h15, les résultats étaient déjà largement diffusés sur Internet... sous formes codées Sur les réseaux sociaux, de nombreux internautes ont diffusé les premières estimations dès la fin de journée sans nommer les candidats pour ne pas tomber sous le coup de la loi qui punit de 75.000 euros d'amende toute personne ou tout média qui publierait des résultats avant la fermeture des bureaux de vote. «Carlita ne chantera pas» » Revivez l'ensemble de la soirée électorale du 1er tour
Local London news, sport, jobs, cars, homes, leisure and local information from around the capital. France: #RadioLondres, Fun and Dissidence on Twitter on Election Day Occasions to laugh or smile have been few and far between during the current French presidential election campaign, which has been obsessed with recession, unemployment, xenophobia. But today, April 22, 2012, as French voters elect two runner-up among ten candidates, they are finally having electoral fun on Twitter under the hashtag #RadioLondres [all links in French].

The ban unleashed a mischievous hashtag on French language Twitter: #RadioLondres. On 18 April, Guillaume on Twitter was among the first to set the rules of this game:

The French election in tweets: follow a real-time visualization of the most popular candidates France is taking to the polls today in the first round of its 2012 presidential election. Incumbent Nicolas Sarkozy is facing a strong challenge from socialist candidate François Hollande, who is presently considered to be the favorite to succeed him as the leader of the nation. That common expectation is backed up by today's Twitter discussions of the election, where Hollande holds a slim lead over Sarkozy in terms of raw tweet count. Of course, a tweet need not be in support of a candidate to include the hashtag for his campaign, but it's fascinating to see how the popularity of each candidate is reflected in our social media conversations. A dedicated website has been set up to provide real-time tracking of the volume of election-related tweets, and its counters were reset early on Sunday morning to coincide with the opening of the polling stations.
