Question for those on my friends list who are now or have recently been in France.

[randomness]

So, the debate on the EU constitution is reaching its climax in France. The French electorate votes on Sunday, and according to news reports it's become a pretty divisive debate, with families and workplaces split by the issue.

My question for my friends currently in, or recently returned from France is this: was this political debate obvious, or are the media exaggerating? (Or both?) What did you see and hear?

its everywhere ! i flee the madness tomorrow to the safety of the british shores - cause, y'know, they've always been pro-europe :P

seriously though - media blitz on most of the news shows (that i flip through), ads here and there, and when i scooted out of the touristy areas i saw some 'non' info-mobs handing out pamphlets ... as of tonight, BBC is reporting polls still favor the 'non' crowd at 55%
