French elections: Left unites to threaten Macron in parliamentary vote

Mélenchon’s alliance, known as NUPES (the New Ecological and Social Popular Union), includes France’s main green party, along with the Socialists, the Communists, and France Insoumise.

This new coalition, which unites La France Insoumise, Europe Ecologie-Les Verts, the Parti Communiste and the Parti Socialiste, has asserted itself as the main opponent to the president. The results of the first round of the legislative elections for French citizens abroad, published on Sunday, June 5, illustrate this face-off. While for the most part Macronist candidates came out on top (with the exception of Manuel Valls) the left-wing alliance made a breakthrough, qualifying for the second round in 10 constituencies out of 11. That is to say, twice as many in 2017. Enough to make the Macronist ranks wary, even worried.

Emmanuel Macron’s troops remain confident but are not certain of winning an absolute majority. With the gradual decline recorded by the polls, the president’s lieutenants have seriously downgraded their ambitions, now fearing a narrow majority, and even a defeat – unthinkable several weeks ago, but now considered “not impossible” at the Elysée Palace.
