Paris-Sana
Preliminary predictions showed that the coalition led by the current French President Emmanuel Macron would lose an absolute majority in the second round of the country's legislative elections.
According to Agence France-Presse, the initial expectations announced this evening at the conclusion of the second round of the elections indicated that the Maan alliance led by Macron would win 200 to 260 seats, giving it a relative majority that would force him to seek the support of other political groups to approve the bills, knowing that the absolute majority reached 289 seats.
Expectations pointed out that the National Rally Party led by Marine Le Pen achieved a major breakthrough by obtaining between 60 and 100 seats in the National Assembly, after it multiplied the number of its representatives fifteen times and exceeded the ceiling required to form a bloc in the National Assembly in a precedent more than 35 years ago. .
And in France, earlier today, polls began in the second round of the legislative elections, while opinion polls indicated that the percentage of abstentions from voting would be large, similar to what happened in the first round.
