STORYLINE:
French police dispersed election night crowds in Paris and Nantes with tear gas on Sunday evening, even though gatherings were largely peaceful across the country.
In Paris' Place de la Republique crowds of people had been chanting and marching with flairs but dispersed rapidly when police launched tear gas canisters at the edges of the gathering.
The same approached was used in the western city of Nantes, a flashpoint for left-wing activism, where police fired tear gas at demonstrators.
At the Republique gathering, an AP reporter saw a bicycle set alight and firecrackers set off.
The incidents were relatively minor by the standards of French protest gatherings.
