I am confused - could you explain your comment in greater detail?

The vote for Macron was predominant among the elderly. Number 3 Mélenchon (radical left) got the votes from the 35- (and he was one of the 2 candidates actually proposing something against climate change). Le Pen (#2, far right) was in first place in-between. It does not mean that everything is explained by age though.
