As it is taking shape at this stage, the map of France of the 577 constituencies should give birth in the second round - scheduled for Sunday June 19 - of a majority for the re-elected President of the Republic: the walkers would collect according to estimates between 275 and 310 seats.
Will they obtain an absolute majority, fixed at 289 deputies?
The hemicycle of the National Assembly should however be largely tinged with red, pink and green, and for good reason: the Insoumis, the socialists and the ecologists would collect between 180 and 210 seats.
Can the Republicans make themselves indispensable?
Weakened, the troops of Marine Le Pen, which would collect according to estimates between 5 and 25 deputies, aspire as for them to reach the required threshold of 15 elected officials - against six to date - to hope to obtain a parliamentary group at the Palais Bourbon.
It would then be a historic first since the parenthesis of 1986 – at the time allowed thanks to proportional representation – and the return of the uninominal majority ballot in two rounds.
A highly unfavorable process for the party to the flame, in that it promotes "dams" in the name of the "republican front".
