That's the legislative elections of course 6 June

  • Republicans 23%
  • National Front 17%
  • Macron seen getting 385-415 seats in second round
  • Republicans 105-125 seats

Not a re-run of the Presidential election ( just to clarify for those not familiar). Macron now has to establish a parliamentary presence if he is to govern effectively.

First round this Sunday 11th and second round on the 18th.
