IN FRANCE A POLITICAL PARTY NEEDS TO GET 289 SEATS TO HAVE AN ABSOLUTE MAJORITY IN THE NATIONAL ASSEMBLY
Out of the 577 seats, it is necessary for a political party to reach the number of 289 seats to become an absolute majority and therefore assured of being able to pass its laws and reforms. However, the ruling party did not obtain this absolute majority. They obtained a relative majority, which encourages him to furax alliances, and even arrangements with other parties to reach this quorum.
In any case, the parties that have won the most seats are the extreme left-wing LFI and right-wing RN parties, and representing the opposition…left and right.
And knowing that the score of the government coalition ("Ensemble", "Together") already includes small parties (LREM + MODEM + HORIZON), in accordance with Emmanuel Macron's doctrine "Le En Meme Temps" which added to the President's Party Macron, LREM (renamed "Renaissance"), this leaves very little room to expand its number of signs, possibly by an alliance with the Republicans of LR (61 seats) who in turn had in 2017
It is a huge shift that the National Assembly is making, whose governance will be complicated, as it is configured and promises heated and heckled debates by very strong opposition groups... This will nevertheless allow a better "breathing democratic” necessary through debates based on the adversarial principle and better representation of the population. Indeed, in France the principle of the proportional election had been promised by the pressers of the Republic who have succeeded since descents, including the current Macron, but never before dared to apply it. From now on, it is done, the French people, have abrogated themselves of this democratic value very representative of the distribution of the divergent opinions of the French, by having the three blocs elected: Center (Right + Left + Centrists) Extreme Left, Extreme , by their votes cast in the second round of the parliamentary election.
Marine Le Pen is probably the winner of this race, starting smoothly the election with only 10% in the 1st lap, ending up with 100% of her candidates, winning their election. It is a one of a kind for the RN party usually called "Far right" that could be labeled differently, and called "A new Right", because obtaining 90 seats makes Marine Le Pen institutionalized in Parliament French and freed him from the label "Diabolical political party", often associated with the FN (National Front of so here Jean Marie Le Pen). She promises a "firm opposition without collusion and hard work pays off," she said. As for his new President of the RN Party, Jordan Bardella, he declared "The French people are between this evening at the National Assembly".
