French President Emmanuel Macron’s alliance got the most seats in the final round of the parliamentary election on Sunday, but it lost its parliamentary majority, according to projections.
PARIS — French President Emmanuel Macron’s centrist alliance was projected to lose its majority despite getting the most seats in the final round of the parliamentary election Sunday, while the far-right National Rally appeared to have made big gains.
The strong performance of both the National Rally and the leftist coalition, led by hard-left leader Jean-Luc Melenchon, is expected to make it harder for Macron to implement the agenda he was reelected on in May, including tax cuts and raising France’s retirement age from 62 to 65. “The Macron adventure has reached its end,” Le Pen said. The group of National Rally lawmakers “will be by far the biggest of the history of our political family.”
Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin, who himself won a seat in his district in northern France, stressed that Mélenchon “lost his bet” to win the elections. Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne also won a seat in western France. “Some people have fought to vote. It is too bad that most of the young people don’t do that,” she said.
