THE ESSENTIAL

• Legislative elections take place on June 12 and 19.

  About 48 million registered voters are called upon to elect their 577 representatives to the National Assembly for the next five years, among more than 6,300 candidates.

• According to some polls, the presidential party could lose the absolute majority in the Assembly, the Together coalition winning only between 24.5 and 28% of the voting intentions.

  But a victory for Nupes, a coalition of the left, remains unlikely for the time being.

• Emmanuel Macron is moving today in the Tarn.

  The President of the Republic will continue the legislative battle in the field of security.

  In Gaillac, he will meet the national gendarmerie brigade in the morning.

9:04 am: Two irreconcilable lefts in the legislative elections in the Gers

Two programs and irreconcilable positions: in the Gers, a socialist, initially invested by Nupes, preferred to campaign solo and finds himself facing a rival LFI, at the risk of dispersing the voices of the left in the legislative elections.

“I made the choice to exclude myself from this agreement to affirm my differences”, explains the candidate and mayor of Saint-Clar.

For him, the “line of fractures” between the left embodied by Carole Delga – re-elected by almost 60% in 2021 – and the Nupes of Jean-Luc Mélenchon are “many”: “secularism, Europe, international politics or even apprehension of the business world ".

Some 70 PS candidates in France, including 14 in Occitania, are campaigning like him outside the Nupes agreement bringing together the main left-wing forces, including the PS and EELV.

8:29 a.m .: The state “does not earn money”, assures Borne

Asked about the rise in fuel prices during a public meeting on Wednesday evening in Vire (Calvados), the head of government Elisabeth Borne assured that the State did not earn money thanks to taxes.

"I can assure you that today the state does not earn money on fuel taxes," she answered a question at a public meeting in Calvados, where she seeks to to be elected in the 6th constituency.

“A project of bans and taxation”: Emmanuel Macron and Elisabeth Borne on Wednesday again targeted Jean-Luc Mélenchon who considered it to be a sign of “panic on board”, four days before the first round of legislative.

“Their project explains to people that they will be prohibited from cutting trees in their homes.

There are 20 new taxations.

It's not a good project for the country", launched Mr. Macron, who notably attended a hip-hop show, taking up the arguments unfolded by his camp since the weekend by estimating that the country had " need for stability and ambition".

"I do not think that people who come from socialism or from republican political forces can make comments on justice, on the police like those made by Jean-Luc Mélenchon", further estimated the President of the Republic, in allusion to the controversy launched after the criticism of the leader of Nupes against the police.

At a meeting in Caen, Jean-Luc Mélenchon mocked Wednesday the “panic on board” which, according to him, seizes the macronie a few days before the legislative elections, justifying his remarks on the police who “kill” and his economic program “Rupture”.

Jean-Luc Mélenchon denounced the lack of debate for these elections, wanted according to him by Emmanuel Macron: “Their thing was general anesthesia, we did it differently.

And the result: we are in the lead, so there is panic on board”.
