Sunday June 12, the French are called to the polls for the first round of the legislative elections, an essential ballot. It will determine the political color of the future National Assembly.
The legislative elections will begin on Sunday June 12 with the first round. Each of the five major political forces in the country meet different issues. Since his re-election as President of the Republic, Emmanuel Macron’s objective has been to win an absolute majority in the National Assembly, with a minimum number of 289 seats to be achieved. According to the latest projections, the presidential majority under the banner Together! would get between 275 and 315 seats. There is also the fate of the fifteen minister candidates for the legislative elections, like the first of them, Elisabeth Borne.
Facing him, Jean-Luc Mélenchon and the left-wing alliance, the Nudes. Its objective is coexistence. Marine Le Pen, leader of the National Rally (RN), says she is penalized by the voting method. She wants to get at least one group RN in the Assembly, i.e. fifteen seats minimum. The right also wants to count and elect up to 80 deputies to counter the texts of the majority. Former polemicist Éric Zemmour hopes to win his first term in the Var and is betting on only a handful of elected officials. A first verdict will take place on Sunday June 12 in the evening.
