54.6% voted for the increase.... turnout was 5.7%. So just over 3% of the eligible Parisian population voted for this.

The turnout for those things is always extremely low.

LOL at all the SUV drivers that didn't go to vote

They were trying to find parking during the vote and missed it.

And even then, only a third of Parisians own a car.

Ah yes, as an Englishman I can wholeheartedly agree making decisions on minor majorities is a fantastic idea, right guys?
-
Well, people always have a tendency to not show up to vote and then complain about the results.

Out of curiosity, how do you know they're the same people in both groups you described?
