Behind, Manon Aubry’s La France insoumise, where many elected officials denounced irregularities throughout the day, improved its scores compared to previous Europeans (8.3 to 8.7%), which redistributes cards to the left during a poll. 2027 Presidential Election.

Led by François-Xavier Bellamy, Les Républicains did not fare well at 7 to 7.2%, slightly above Marion Maréchal’s Reconquête list and the 5% needed to send representatives to the European Parliament.
