Francois Fillon has just come out as the winner of the Republican party by defeating Alain Juppe in the second round of the primary in a crushing victory, getting twice as many votes as his opponent. He will be facing far-right candidate and leading anti-establishment figure Marine Le Pen on one side as well as socialist candidates Emmanuel Macron and (potentially) Manuel Valls on the other.
Given what the Cs said about the previous French elections of 2007, is there a possibility that the primary votes were also rigged or did we just witness another case of wishful thinking where the establishment didn't expect such a large support for Fillon and they were caught off guard?

Session 16 July 2007
Q: (Joe) Was there any election fraud in the 2007 French elections?
A: Of course!
Q: (Joe) Is there a percentage we can have of fraudulent or stolen votes?
A: Believe that the percentage is over 20 percent.
Q: (Joe) So 20%?
A: Yes.
Q: (Joe) That would suggest that only 30% of people voted for Sarkozy. (H) Did Segolene get more votes than Sarkozy?
A: Yes.
Q: (S) So that pretty much means that the feeling that Laura and I had that maybe Sarkozy wasn't quite so evil was probably fairly wrong?
A: Probably, but remember that Sarkozy is not in charge. He just doesn't fully realize it yet.
Q: (H) Will there be some sort of event that will sort of bring it home to him?
A: Most likely. There is a grave aura of danger spreading over France.
Q: (L) Danger from where?
A: Conflict is between those who want to put France in the bind and those who do not and know it will be like sparks in a powder keg.
Q: (L) Why would it be like sparks in a powder keg?
A: The French mentality: arrogance etc.
Q: (Joe) They're worried about another revolution. (L) And who is pressing to put France in the bind?
A: Your favorite Zionazis.
Q: (L) And who is against it?
A: Sarkozy among others. Though he is trying to appease in some ways.
Q: (H) Was Segolene more closely aligned with the Zionazis?
A: That is an interesting question: Let us just say she was picked to run to lose.
Q: (H) So is this Julien Dray character who is close to her one of the key players?
A: Indeed. Sarkozy thinks he can handle it, but he will find he has a tiger by the tail.
