National Rally makes big gains in first round of French election with 34% of votes, shaping up to challenge Macron's party.

The far-right National Rally, led by Marine Le Pen, has shocked France by winning approximately 34% of the national vote, according to exit polls. This surge places the National Rally in a dominant position, inching closer to becoming the leading party in France. As Le Pen sets her sights on an absolute majority, the traditional political landscape in France faces a significant shift.

Early projections from the first round of the French elections indicate that the National Rally is on track for a major victory in the parliamentary vote. Emmanuel Macron's decision to call for these elections seems to have backfired, as the far-right party's popularity soars. The rise of the National Rally signals a challenge to the current establishment and may result in a significant power shift in French politics.

Marine Le Pen's National Rally party has made substantial gains in the legislative elections, winning an estimated 34% of votes in the first round. This outcome reflects the growing support for far-right ideologies in France, with voters rallying behind Le Pen's anti-immigrant stance. The upcoming second round on 7 July will determine whether the National Rally can maintain its momentum and secure a decisive victory.

The unexpected surge of the National Rally in France's political scene has sent shockwaves across the country. President Emmanuel Macron's call for voters to unite against the far right has not deterred the National Rally's progress. With Le Pen's party leading the charge, the future of French politics hangs in the balance, poised for a potential transformation.
