Across France, large May Day rallies reflected deep ideological divisions ahead of Sunday’s presidential election.
Organized labor has traditionally opposed Marine Le Pen’s far-right National Front, but major unions oppose the job market overhauls that Emmanuel Macron, the centrist who leads in polls, wants to expand if elected.
Both candidates condemned violent clashes in Paris. Mr. Macron paid tribute to a Moroccan man who was killed in 1995 on the fringes of a National Front rally. And some noted that Ms. Le Pen appeared to have copied parts of her speech on Monday from a former rival.
