In the second constituency of the Somme, François Ruffin came in second place in the votes. He qualifies for the second round, where he will face the leading RN candidate, Nathalie Ribeiro-Billet.

In the second constituency of the Somme, no three-way race, but a duel during the second round of the legislative elections, Sunday July 7. This duel will pit Nathalie Ribeiro-Billet for the National Rally against François Ruffin for the New Popular Front. How will voters vote for the second round?

François Ruffin was very combative after the announcement of the results of the first round. The outgoing MP is in an unfavorable ballot, four points behind the National Rally. Among the first in the Macronist camp, Albane Branlant followed the instructions and withdrew. “I am standing up to the National Rally”she justified herself, calling for a vote for François Ruffin. But are the voters of the Republicans and Emmanuel Macron ready to vote for a left-wing candidate? François Ruffin has five days left to try to keep his seat as a deputy.
