French Voters Choose Remainder of National Assembly

Results to Reshape Political Landscape

PARIS (July 7, 2024) - French voters cast their ballots on Sunday to elect the remaining members of the Assemblée Nationale, the lower house of parliament. With 76 deputies already elected in the first round of voting on June 30, the outcome of today's second round will determine the balance of power in the legislature.

President Emmanuel Macron's centrist coalition, Ensemble!, is competing to maintain its majority against a strong challenge from the left-wing Nupes alliance and the far-right National Rally.

The results of the election are expected to have a significant impact on Macron's ability to implement his reform agenda, including plans to raise the retirement age and overhaul the welfare system.
