French Left-Wing Alliance Triumphs in Parliamentary Election
Le Pen's Party Narrowly Misses Out
Macron and Le Pen Face Off in Final Round
In a thrilling parliamentary election in France, the left-wing alliance has secured the most seats, narrowly defeating the party of far-right leader Marine Le Pen.
According to the latest vote projections, the left-wing alliance has won 244 seats in the National Assembly, securing them a majority in the chamber. Meanwhile, Le Pen's party, the National Rally, has gained 228 seats, falling just short of a clear victory.
The razor-thin margin between the two parties has set the stage for a tense final round of voting, where President Emmanuel Macron's centrist party will face off against Le Pen's far-right platform.
The results have sent shockwaves through the country, as many had predicted a more decisive vitória for Macron's party. However, Le Pen's strong performance has demonstrated the growing appeal of nationalist and populist sentiments in France.
