French Voters Head to the Polls in Second Round of Legislative Elections

Projections Show Macron's Party Set to Fall Short of Majority

Ensemble Projected to Win 150 Seats, Far-Right National Rally Expected to Make Gains

French voters returned to the polls on Sunday, June 30, three weeks after electing Emmanuel Macron as President. Projections suggest that Macron's party, Ensemble, will fall short of securing a majority in the National Assembly, with approximately 150 seats.

The far-right National Rally, led by Marine Le Pen, is projected to make significant gains, potentially becoming the largest opposition group in the Assembly. Other parties expected to perform well include the left-wing NUPES coalition and the center-right Republicans.

The results of the election will determine the composition of the National Assembly, which plays a crucial role in shaping French policy. The outcome will also test the strength of Macron's mandate and indicate the level of support for his agenda.

Stay tuned for live updates and analysis as the results continue to come in.
