France: local (cantonal) elections are coming (March 20 and 27)

This is the electoral poster for Henri Stoll, Green Mayor of Kaysersberg (3000 people) in Alsace. Here is the story about this poster: because of the use of the colors blue, white and red it had to be modified and a new version printed. It is prohibited to use blue, white and red on an electoral poster. In the new version the red letters turned orange and voilà (Source: Rue89).
Here the Europe-Ecologie-Les Verts website: there are 1,400 candidates and 400 blogs. There are presently 24 Green conseillers généraux, as are called the representatives at the cantonal level. How many will be elected on March 27?
Here the site for the campaign, with a map of the blogs and constant update. Everything in French, bien entendu.
