Photographer’s Note

Today is the 2nd turn of town council election in France. It is the first election since the presidentials (well there was the legislative election right after the presidentials), and there is a great stake there for the government (liberal) and the shadow government (socialist).
Votes ended a few minites ago and we're about to know if people followed him...;o)

Title inspired by the following song lyrics =>
"Follow Me" by Uncle Kracker:

You don't know how you met me
You don't know why
You can't turn around and say goodbye...

...Follow me everything is alright
I'll be the one to tuck you in at night
And if you
Want to leave I can guarantee
You won't find nobody else like me

I'm not worried 'bout the ring you wear
Cuz as long as no one knows than nobody can care
You're feelin' guilty and I'm well aware
But you don't look ashamed and baby I'm not scared
I'm singin'


Won't give you money
I can't give you the sky
You're better off if you don't ask why
I'm not the reason that you go astray and
We'll be all right if you don't ask me to stay...

You don't know how you met me
You don't know why
You can't turn around and say goodbye...
