The two main French candidates had very difficult styles of online engagement. Nikolas Sarkozy's campaign, the eventual winner, followed a video-heavy but also top-driven model
Royal's online strategy, by contrast, focused heavily on fostering conversation with and among supporters. In part, this was by necessity — in the primary process, she was opposed by her party's hierarchy and was frozen out of the party campaign machinery, and she adopted a web-centric strategy to bypass traditional filters and speak directly to voters.
