The upcoming legislative elections in France are anticipated to have high voter turnout, reminiscent of the 1990s. With over 1.3 million proxy vote registrations, there is a sense of urgency and importance surrounding these elections.
Since the establishment of post-presidential parliamentary elections, voter turnout has been declining, but experts believe that the 2024 elections could mark a turning point, with voters realizing the significance of their participation in shaping the country’s future.

‘Situation is serious’
Experts stress the historic significance of the upcoming elections, urging voters to understand the gravity of the situation and the potential lasting impacts of their votes. The outcome of the 2024 legislative elections has the power to reshape the political landscape in France for years to come.
