Marine Le Pen is delighted with the results of the RN in the legislative elections

Serenity without too much euphoria.

Gathered in front of the small Mollet room in Hénin-Beaumont, traditionally reserved for the city's sewing workshop, the 150 supporters of Marine Le Pen came to congratulate the RN candidate.

With 55% of the votes collected in the first round of the legislative elections, the finalist of the last presidential election should have validated her re-election in the 11th district of Pas-de-Calais from this Sunday, June 12.

Except that the low turnout (less than 25% of registered voters) will force him to go through a second round next Sunday against Marine Tondelier, Nupes candidate and elected opposition member in Hénin-Beaumont.

But beyond her very favorable score, Marine Le Pen returned more broadly to the results of the RN during this first all of the legislative elections.

By obtaining between 18 and 19% of the votes cast at the national level, the National Rally is about 7 points better than in 2017 and can even hope to obtain between 10 and 45 deputies in the next National Assembly.

Much better than five years ago when the party won only eight seats.

“This result is achieved despite considerable abstention.

It is important not to let Emmanuel Macron have an absolute majority which he will abuse to apply his self-centered and brutal methods and impose his anti-social project on us, ”said Marine Le Pen, who called on her voters not to vote at the second round neither for a candidate of the Nupes, nor for a candidate of the presidential majority.
