PARIS (Reuters) - Manuel Valls, who quit as Socialist prime minister a month ago to prepare a campaign for this year's presidential election, was seen narrowly winning the left-wing primaries later in January, an opinion poll published on Thursday showed.
Valls is seen coming top in the Jan 22 first round vote with 37 percent, ahead of second-placed Benoit Hamon, the former education minister, who is set to win 28 percent, and third-placed Arnaud Montebourg on 24 percent, the poll by Opinionway showed.
