French presidential candidate Jean-Luc Melenchon made a return to hologram campaigning Tuesday, beaming himself and his far-left message to six cities as far away as the overseas territory of Reunion. He denied that his euroskeptic stance amounted to wanting to leave the bloc, saying: "Don't believe what they tell you." Francois Fillon was in Lille in northern France for his last rally on Tuesday night, though he continues to make headlines for everything besides his policy. But voters now appear to be warming to his message that he is a safe pair of hands in an election of largely untested candidates.
