Macron faces the risk of an ungovernable France, the Nupes first opposition force and the RN at a historic level.

The legislative elections reshuffled the cards in the Assembly on Sunday and promise five difficult years for the newly reelected president.

It will take "a lot of imagination" to act in this "unprecedented situation" without an absolute majority, admitted the Minister of the Economy Bruno Le Maire, considering, despite everything, that France was not ungovernable.

Emmanuel Macron's camp won 245 seats, below an absolute majority (289), followed by Nupes and its allies with 137 seats and the RN which made a historic breakthrough with 89 seats, according to a complete count of the AFP.

LR wins 61 seats and its ally UDI three, against a hundred in the previous legislature.

The various right get nine seats.

The miscellaneous left 15 seats.

Ten seats go to regionalist deputies.

The Ministry of the Interior lists, for its part, 131 Nupe deputies and 22 various left, but several ultra-marines have received the support of the left alliance and should sit with them in the Assembly.

The second party RN of France

In detail, within the Together! coalition, 170 deputies are from Renaissance (ex-LREM), 46 from MoDem, 26 from Horizons, and three from the Radical Party.

In the ranks of the Nupes, 72 deputies are elected under the Nupes-LFI nuance, 26 under Nupes-PS, 23 under Nupes-EELV and 12 under Nupes-PCF.

With 89 deputies, the RN is therefore the second party in France in the Assembly and could claim the presidency of the finance committee – even if Gabriel Attal, minister delegate in charge of public accounts, assured that nothing was decided and this would be for the Assembly to decide.

The abstention rate reached 53.77%, according to the Ministry of the Interior, a figure slightly lower than that of 2017 (57.4%).

We are still far from parity, with 215 women elected (37.3%), compared to 224 in 2017.
