2022 French legislatives

On those disastrous numbers, I assume that vote transfers to macronismo were terrible, much like in 2017, except that they had much less leeway than five years ago, hence this trainwreck.

Looking at some results, yes, transfers to macronismo were absolutely terrible: it's very obvious in ENS vs. RN runoffs, but also in ENS vs. Right runoffs (as in 2017 in the latter case).

On the other hand, it's also looking as if transfers to the NUPES when up against the RN were also quite bad: it's clear that a fair (substantial) number of macronista and right-wing voters went to the RN rather than NUPES.

I guess that's what happens when macronismo spends weeks talking about 'the extremes', plural, and depicting NUPES as the second coming of Joseph Stalin and Mao Zedong. Disgusting stuff.

Richard Ferrand, president of the National Assembly, is narrowly defeated in Finistère-6. Good riddance.

Christophe Castaner, leader of the LREM group and former interior minister (before rapey Darmanin), is defeated in Alpes-de-Haute-Provence-2. Good riddance as well.

Basically, only LR/RN runoffs were bad for RN. Jesus.

If the 'glass ceiling' for the RN is broken in the runoffs, or legislative elections, honestly it's Macron's fault, in good part. Their rhetoric largely contributed to legitimizing the far-right as an acceptable option when up against the left.

Disgusting stuff. I already regret voting for that slimy bastard.

Hahaha, it seems as if the RN may have *lost* Pas-de-Calais-3 to NUPES' candidate, the PCF mayor of Avion (a Communist stronghold in the mining basin). A big blow to the Narrative.
