Macron Suffers Huge Loss in French Parliamentary Elections, as Le Pen's National Rally Takes Huge Number of SeatsMarche pas. That's my attempt at a pun. Macron's party was called En Marche, which means On the Move. Marche pas means "not moving." He seems to have changed the name of the party to "Ensemble" (together) for this election. French President Emmanuel Macron on Sunday was set to lose his parliamentary majority after major election gains by a newly formed left-wing alliance and the far-right, in a stunning blow to his hopes of major reform in his second term. The left won a lot more seats. A new party, or really a new party coalition called "Nupes," united the Socialists, Communists, hard left and greens, won somewhere between 149-200 seats, which is a lot more than the 60 seats the left held in total before the election. LePen's National Rally party previously held only eight seats, but now will hold between 60 and 102. Macron attacked the left during the parliamentary election season and is unlikely to form a coalition with them. He's extremely unlikely to form a coalition with LePen's NR, which leaves only Les Republicains -- the traditional center-right party, the party of Sarkozy -- as his only dance partner. They will elect between 40 and 80 members of parliament. Macron will have to strike a deal with LR for their support, moving to the "right" to appease them, maybe even picking a PM from their ranks. This thread discusses the election. Philippe Marlière @PhMarliere Macron's party had been En Marche (On the Move), but I guess now it's Ensemble (Together). ... I believe "The Republican Front" was a voting strategy previously used to defeat Le Pen. The idea was, whoever faced Le Pen in the run-off would get the vote of anyone in the "Republican Front," be they from the Republicains, or the Party Socialiste, or Macron, or whatever. It was a tactical "We all agree to vote anti-Le Pen" arrangement. (They might have also agreed to vote against the far left candidates: that is, the Republicains and Macron's party agreed to support each other over the far left and the far right (which is what they call Le Pen).) But it broke down here. The agreement did not hold against candidates from Le Pen's party who were not Le Pen herself. IPSOS poll. The death of the 'republican front'. When Nupes faced RN: 72% of Ensemble voters abstained, 16% voted for Nupes, 12% voted for RN. 58% of LR voters abstained, 30% voted for RN and 12% voted for Nupes. In other words, bitter party loyalists do what they usually do when their candidates lose in the primary and abstained in the run-off, rather than follow the "Republican Front" agreement and vote in the run-off for anybody but Le Pen. Or, here, "anybody but the candidate from Le Pen's National Rally party." They either just abstained or voted for the left or for National Rally, as they preferred. According to this from Le Monde, the number of "sieges" (seats) won looks like this: Rassemblement National is what I've been calling Rally National or National Rally (Le Pen).
