Macron, a pro-European centrist, took first place with 24.01% of the first round voting, while the anti-immigrant, anti-EU Le Pen came second on 21.30%, according to final results released Monday by the French Interior Ministry.Le Pen taking leave of absence as National Front leaderFrench President Hollande says he will vote for Macron
