According to the latest data, Marine Le Pen's National Rally party is making significant strides towards gaining a majority in the parliament. The results show that the far-right party has secured over 33% of the popular vote, which is a remarkable achievement for Le Pen and her supporters. In a triumphant announcement, Le Pen declared, "Democracy has spoken!"
These results could potentially lead to France having its first far-right government since the Second World War. Meanwhile, the current president, Emmanuel Macron, and his Rennaissance/Together Coalition have fallen behind with just 22% of the vote. This could mean a clear victory for Le Pen's party and the possibility of an absolute majority in the parliament.
Addressing her supporters in Hénin-Beaumont, northern France, Le Pen emphasized the importance of political change in a democracy. She also called for an absolute majority for her candidate, Jordan Bardella, to be appointed as the prime minister by Macron. Le Pen urged her followers to join her coalition, which stands for freedom, security, and unity. She reassured the French people that their rights will not be compromised and that there is renewed hope for the future.
However, President Macron is not backing down without a fight. He has called for a "Republican rally" in the hopes of preventing Le Pen's party from gaining a majority in the second round of voting. In his statement, he said, "Faced with the National Rally, the time has come for a large, clearly democratic and Republican rally for the second round."
The exit poll results, which have a history of being highly accurate, were released at 8 pm this evening, with a record turnout of almost 70%. Based on the current projections, National Rally is expected to win between 260 and 310 seats, while the Renaissance/Together coalition is trailing behind with only 90 to 120 seats.
Regardless of the outcome of the parliamentary elections, Macron will remain in office until 2027, as he is constitutionally allowed to serve a maximum of two terms. However, Le Pen's victory in these elections would undoubtedly have a significant impact on the political landscape of France.
