They do very well in a very different kind of region, some similar interests, or industries, but without the kind of Catholic fidelity that remains in parts of the north.

They do well down here in the Bourbonnais, in the Nièvre, in the Allier, in departments like that.

And there are places in the south, in the Hérault, that is the department of Béziers and Montpellier.

But in other places, like for example Limoges, where the Socialist Party was and still is very, very strong and remarkable continuity, they don't do well at all.
