I absolutely hate the French presidential/parliamentary system.
It always feels like Hindenburg in the making.

If either RN or AfD get into power, the European project is as good as dead.

Don’t forget it’s not just one election, but 577 local elections in a 2 round system. Polls just give the number of voters but not the composition of the Assembly.
In 2024, RN was given winner, had the most voters in first round, but ended 2nd in number of representants.

I hope we get rid of the UE veto before this eventually comes true…

For anyone wondering, those are the same figures as for the past 5 years. About 30% left, 30% right, 35% far right

Looks like traditional parties are completely out of the picture now.

I see a lot of comments about RN being far-right, but I’m curious to know what policies make them far-right?

No majority = no power
No majority = the president doesn’t have to name one of them as PM
France isn’t a parliamentary system, the president holds the cards unless a group gets a majority to go against him.
Also don’t believe the polls, they’ve all been terribly wrong when predicting the past 2 elections. They all had the RN get an absolute majority for the last snap elections yet that’s not what happened.

At this point the French must be like “oh, the government collapsed? must be Monday”

Damn the left is really in the mud. Not just in France either.

Will this be the way how parties now try to get votes. By blocking the government that is now?

Here’s hoping the far right fails. Again.

These results in no way represent our voting intentions, as the opposition has already demonstrated.
Those who conduct these polls are part of the propaganda system.

I guess every country that decided against cooperating in military matters with France must feel vindicated now.
On the flipside Germany must feel stupid now having hoped that RN would not get to power even after they [explicitly stated they would stop military cooperation](https://www.euractiv.com/section/politics/short_news/le-pen-wants-to-stop-military-cooperation-with-germany/) which I assume means weapons deliveries as well Germany if elected.
RN = [National Rally](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Rally) / formerly National Front (far-right)
NFP = [New Popular Front](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Popular_Front) / electoral alliance of far to centre left parties, includes [LFI](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/La_France_Insoumise) (far-left) and [PS](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socialist_Party_(France)) (centre-left)
Majorité Présidentielle = Presidential majority, [Ensemble](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ensemble_(political_coalition)) the Presidents ruling coalition
LR = [The Republicans](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Republicans_(France)), centre-right, successor party of [UMP](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_for_a_Popular_Movement)
DVG = [Miscellaneous left](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miscellaneous_left)
[Reconquete](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reconqu%C3%AAte) = Far-right party led by Zemmour
DVS = [Miscellaneous right](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Miscellaneous_right)
