Legislative elections 2022 in pictures: The hot spots of the second round

Four days before the second round of the legislative elections on June 19, 2022, the campaign is getting into trouble after Emmanuel Macron's call on voters to give him a "solid" majority in the Assembly to avoid "disorder", which is causing outraged or mocking criticism from its opponents.

Ministers in danger, push of the Nupes, slap of the PS dissidents, breakthrough of the RN, and LR which limits the damage… Here are the hot spots of the second round of the legislative elections in pictures.

Directed by:

• In Palaiseau, Minister Amélie de Montchalin is trying to snatch votes one by one with the help of Bruno Le Maire, a government heavyweight.

  The game looks very complicated because the Minister of Ecological Transition finished the first round with 31.46% against 38.31% for Jérôme Guedj, a delay of 2,815 votes.

  In the event of defeat in the legislative elections, the ministers involved will have to resign.

• Clément Beaune came second in the 7th district of Paris with 35.81%, behind Nupes Caroline Mecary (40.43%), a lawyer by profession.

  Former Prime Minister Edouard Philippe therefore came on Wednesday to act as a firefighter to try to save the Minister of European Affairs.

• Another minister in unfavorable ballot, Stanislas Guérini placed second in the 3rd district of Paris with 32.50%, behind Nupes Léa Balage El Mariky (38.66%).

• In total, six of the nine Parisian deputies of the outgoing majority arrive behind Nupes in the first round, like Laetita Avia, behind by 14 points against Eva Sas in the 8th district (XII and XX).

• In Montmartre, Pierre-Yves Bournazel (Horizons), with nearly 10 points behind the ex-journalist Aymeric Caron (Nupes), plays him the card of the "assiduous deputy" and a "moderate personality".

  Arriving well ahead of the dissident PS Lamia El Aaraje, Daniel Simonnet (Nupes, 47.11%) should be elected in the 15th district of Paris (XXth).

  Nupes Sophia Chikirou, Danièle Obono and Sarah Legrain already have their sesame for the National Assembly.

• The rebellious Manuel Bompard, who was running in the 4th constituency of Bouches-du-Rhône of outgoing Jean-Luc Mélenchon, has not yet certified his seat, although he has won 56.04% of the vote, due low turnout.

• The three leaders of the member parties of the Nupes coalition with La France insoumise, namely the Socialist Party, Europe Ecologie Les Verts, and the Communist Party, should win in their respective constituencies.

  Olivier Faure (PS) obtains 46.90% of the vote in the 11th of Seine-et-Marne, Julien Bayou (EELV) 48.88% in the 5th of Paris, and Fabien Roussel (PC) 34.13% in the 20th North.

• Socialist dissidents opposed to Nupes were swept away on Sunday in the first round of legislative elections despite the support of party elephants, strengthening the position of First Secretary Olivier Faure, who bet on the left alliance with LFI.

  Carole Delga, president of the Occitanie region hostile to the union, which has been active on the ground in support of dissidents, called on Sunday to "block far-right candidates by voting for the best-placed candidate, whatever be its label.

• In Yonne, RN candidates are qualified for the second round throughout the department.

  In the 3rd constituency, the very media-rich Julien Odoul, regional elected official and national spokesperson for the party, obtained 35.17% of the vote and was clearly ahead of the outgoing deputy Michèle Crouzet (21.52%), invested by the presidential majority.

  RN candidate Audrey Lopez also turns in the lead in the 2nd constituency with 30.72% of the vote, ahead of the outgoing André Villiers (Together!), who brings together 29.22%.

  The ecologist Florence Loury, invested by Nupes, created a surprise in the 1st constituency and took the lead with 24.25% of the vote, ahead of Daniel Grenon (RN, 23.92%), to the detriment of the outgoing LR Guillaume Larrivé ( 22.61%).

• The National Rally progressed on Sunday in the first round of legislative elections and will be present in the second round in 200 constituencies.

  In the eleventh constituency, a wine-growing area of ​​Blayais with a high poverty rate, RN candidate Edwige Diaz, a rising star of the party, is in the lead with 39.42% of the vote, well ahead of outgoing LREM MP Véronique Hammerer (23.72% ).

• Minister Damien Abad came comfortably in the lead in the 5th constituency of Ain with 33.38%, ahead of Nupes (23.54%).

  The candidate of the New People's Ecological and Social Union (Nupes) Anne-Laure Chaintron obtained 20.42% of the vote in a stronghold of the right and it will be interesting to see where her 7,260 votes will go.

• The N.3 of the Republicans Aurélien Pradié is well placed to keep his seat in the National Assembly in the Lot.

  In the first constituency, the 36-year-old outgoing deputy totaled 45.46% of the vote on Sunday and will face in the second round the candidate LFI / Nupes Elsa Bougeard (22.26%).
