Initial projections from the second round of the 2024 French legislative election indicate that the right has fallen short of expectations and that leftists have secured the most seats.

Exit polls show that the leftist New Popular Front is expected to win between 172 and 192 seats, according to CNN. President Emmanuel Macaron’s centrist party, Ensemble, came in second and is estimated to receive 150 to 170 seats. Marine Le Pen’s Nationally Rally came in third, with between 132 and 152 seats.

While the National Rally is expected to significantly increase its number of seats, the results fall short of expectations for the party that won the first round of snap elections. Despite the surprising outcome for the left, no party has achieved an absolute majority of 289 seats, leading to a potentially complex process to determine the next Prime Minister.

A final tally of the results is expected by Monday. Voter turnout for the election was 59.71%, the highest since 1981.
