  • Polling consistently places National Rally at 33 to 34 percent in possible legislative elections, with Macron’s party at roughly half that share.

  • An election would pose a personal challenge for Le Pen, who faces a five-year ban after an embezzlement conviction.
  • I am calling on him to dissolve the National Assembly. We are at the end of the road. The joke is over, the farce has gone on long enough … By irrationally fighting institutions, Emmanuel Macron is putting the country in a terribly complicated situation.
    — Marine Le Pen; after a meeting with Bardella, urging Macron to dissolve the National Assembly.

Key FactsPreliminary result puts France’s left alliance ahead
Jul 7, 2024 · Reading time: ~45 sec.
Summary created with AI assistance · Source: welt.de
  • According to preliminary results, Nouveau Front Populaire won 182 seats, Macron’s alliance 168, and Rassemblement National 143.

  • Because no camp secured a majority, possible alliances and support from individual lawmakers are now being explored.

  • The left-wing alliance plans to name a prime-ministerial candidate this week.

  • Attal offered his resignation, but Macron rejected it and asked him to remain temporarily to preserve political stability.
  • "The alliance of shame and the election deals Macron has struck with left-wing radical groups robs the French tonight of a policy of revival that they had supported by a large majority," Bardella said.— Bardella said this with regard to the tactical withdrawals of several candidates in Sunday's runoff in Vincennes near Paris.
