Absolute or simple majority? Emmanuel Macron asked the French on Tuesday to grant him a “solid” majority in the National Assembly. But it remains uncertain, according to an Ipsos-Sopra Steria poll for Radio France and France Televisions. Ensemble would obtain between 265 and 305 seats, Nupes between 140 and 180, the right (LR/UDI/DVD) between 60 and 80, and the RN between 20 and 50 deputies.
More than a thousand candidates in the second round. Across all political forces, 1,148 candidates are in the running for the second round on Sunday, including 43% women and 57% men, according to an AFP count. There will be seven triangulations, 562 duels, and three constituencies with a single candidate.
For the Alpes-Maritimes department, in 2017, 6 seats were allocated to LR and 3 to LREM, currently Ensemble.
In the second round, the “finalists” will be 8 Ensemble, 5 LR, 4 RN, and 1 Nupes. There will be 4 run-offs between ENS/LR candidates, 3 ENS/RN, 1 ENS/NUPES, 1 LR/RN.
