This map shows French communes according to the list that came out on top in the European elections on Sunday, June 9.
The Rassemblement National’s (RN, far right) list, in brown on the map, won the European elections by a landslide with 31.5% of the vote, inflicting a stinging defeat on the president’s camp.
This historic score is more than double that obtained by Macron’s ruling coalition (14.6%), in yellow. In third came the Socialists, in pink, with 13.83 % of the vote.
Liberal democracy becomes reactionary the same way communists become anti-revolutionaries the moment their leader sits as the head of the country. It is inevitable. We are just going to live through this first wave of democratic crisis in the modern world because we are the first to achieve such good institutions and system of laws and regulations. In this sense, the anti-democratic anti-liberal movements become Liberal by definition because they want to change the system (it doesn’t matter that the system is liberal). This is like a virus that has infected the body – a stress test for democracy. The way people react to it will determine if the body dies or becomes stronger
Le Macron is in le danger
Land does not vote.
Well done, Mr. Putin
So france is just far right now?
What are RN’s main goals, or objectives?
What does this mean to the EU?
What’s going on over there?
Fun fact, the best department for RN is Mayotte with ~52% of the votes. Around 95% of Mayotte’s population is muslim.
Poo brown is a perfect colour for a far right party
nous sommes cooked
Looks like they deeply regret voting macron last election, what a surprise!!!!
I seen this map in Hungary in 2010. This is exactly how Orbán started and it became worse and worse until now, when he lost most of the small towns to independents. This is not going to be a fun decade for France if they don’t stop it right now.
Wait is RN’s colour actually brown?
Feels like this is just representative of deep political issues.
This was the inevitable end point of France being miserable with whoever they elect.
First they burned through their long standing parties. Then fortunately a centrist party filled the vacuum. But the French reaction was just rage. Now they’re getting extremists.
I’m sure they’ll rage shortly after Le Pen takes the presidency, so I have no idea what happens then. Hopefully she doesn’t do too much damage before she’s kicked out.
In the long run the French need to stop being outraged by absolutely everything. It’s just not compatible with the long-term health of a democracy.
A lot of sensationalist comments.
The immigration crisis in Europe in general is a well established topic that is there for 20 years now and, surprise surprise, the parties that more talked about that won the elections or increased their parties.
The more people will consider right wing as stupid and more they will get votes.
Stop being antidemocratic and start the dialogue on topics that matter on people:
– anti immigration / limit immigration
– defence/security
– economy
The left did exactly nothing, they appeased the dictatorships in EU and they left immigrats coming into Europe without a plan.
Also I see a lot of dumb comments here.
The center right is not far right and not all rights are the same, mostly are pro-Europe, pro-nato and against autocraties.
Stop with this hysteria and start talk and discussing with your citizens on what is the problem and how to solve it.
This is democracy and not just one single point of view winning over and over and then cry that the population got tired of them.

This is bad, but why pretend it’s surprising?
Unsustainable immigration won’t make me and probably won’t make you vote for the far right, but it will make many people vote for the far right. It doesn’t matter that we don’t think it’s the solution, it’s still incredibly predictable, and the moderate elites should have been able to see something that simple as well. But they didn’t, so now we have this.
Russia is the true winner, money well spent
Brown is the correct colour
Looks like the map of Hungary every election, welcome! Enjoy the ride!
Keep in mind, land doenst vote.
RN only got 30% of the vote.
Still not great, but not as bad as this pic implies
…
oh shit.
This is what happens when leftist parties ignore illegal immigrants or act like they are a good thing.
Thank god. About time France woke up and smelled the coffee
Hmm, it is as if some people have been warning for over a decade: liberals and left wingers need to change their stance on mass migration, or power will slowly shift into the hands of authoritarians who promise to curb it.
Is mass migration truly more important to those wide political groups than maintaining democracy?
It’s funny af to see the media crying their eyes out over these results lmao
I feel people still live in the past, we aren’t the colonial power we were back in 1940. Really i don’t know how my fellow countrymen think we can stay a global leader on our own. We massively export baguette and wine ?
