French leftists win most seats in elections, pollsters say. Lack of majority to create turmoil

PARIS (AP) — A coalition on the left that came together unexpectedly ahead of France’s snap elections won the most parliamentary seats in the vote, according to polling projections Sunday. The surprise projections put President Emmanuel Macron’s centrist alliance in second and the far right in third.

The lack of majority for any single alliance plunged France into political and economic turmoil. Final results are not expected until late Sunday or early Monday in the highly volatile snap election, which was called just four weeks ago in a huge gamble for Macron.

The deeply unpopular president lost control of parliament, according to the projections. Marine Le Pen’s far right drastically increased the number of seats it holds in parliament but fell far short of expectations.

The snap legislative elections in this nuclear-armed nation and major economy will influence the war in Ukraine, global diplomacy and Europe’s economic stability.

France now faces the prospect of weeks of political machinations to determine who will be prime minister and lead the National Assembly. And Macron faces the prospect of leading the country alongside a prime minister opposed to most of his domestic policies.

The projections, if confirmed by official counts expected later Sunday or early Monday, plunge a pillar of the European Union and its second-largest economy into intense uncertainty, with no clarity about who might partner with President Emmanuel Macron as prime minister in governing France.

LET EUROPE ROT IN THIER GLOBALIST, ISLAMIC JUCIES. Europe is not our ally, and may likely become our enemy

[Frank Drebin]

Ah. European "democracy". Their systems are little different from the show elections of any other group of despots.

They can swim in it...till their fingers are all pruny. We won't be coming to bail their useless asses out a third time. England, maybe...but not these cheese eating surrender monkeys.

[cowboyusa]

The French don’t have guns.

[gibsonguy]

Never a doubt. There was no way Le Pen was going to be PM. France stays dead and the ground will be salted.

[Lazamataz]

World War Two was a waste of resources on our part.

Should have let the Nazis win.

[SueRae]

“Projections”.

[laplata]

The Deep State will do anything to maintain their power and control. I believe that by January, this country will be in such turmoil and chaos that states will start leaving the Union.

[cowboyusa]

Time for all European Jews to go to Israel.

[laplata]

The Russians would want nothing to do with such a country. They will protect their own country from becoming such a mess.

[cowboyusa]

We should have nothing more to do with Europe. PULL OUR TROOPS OUT!

[Owen]

Here are the things Europe has that ppl are imagining Russia wants:

1) Gazillion Muslim refugees

2)No oil outside Norway

3)No gas outside Netherlands

4) Farmland in less quantity than Russia

5) Oh wait, did I mention gazillion muslim refugees? Well, it’s worth two mentions

6) A central bank that can print infinite money? No, wait, Russia has one of those.

French President Macron Aligns with the Black Bloc Communists in Effort to Stop Surging Patriotism

July 4, 2024 | Sundance

It really is remarkable to watch the similarities between left-wing politics in the USA and left-wing politics in France.  Historically, and in actual practice, we see this similarity as history rhymes and repeats. In both instances, you will note how the “mainstream” Democrats align with the communists to stop the majority of commonsense patriots.

In the USA, Democrats enjoy the activity of their foot soldiers in Antifa (Occupy Wall Street, Black Lives Matter, or RevCom etc.)  In France, the Democrats (NPF), within Macron’s camp, enjoy the activity of Black Bloc (the EU Antifa socialists and communists).

For this second round of the election, President Emmanuel Macron and Prime Minister Gabriel Attal have organized 210 candidate exits, as Macron pulls his party toward the far-left.  The people, within the center of the Macron coalition, cannot believe how Macron would join with the communists, simply to retain his own power.  Apparently, they don’t follow history much.

FRANCE – […] “Macron reportedly refused to accept that the election result was a disaster and represents the end of his movement.

Criticizing his sudden decision to ally with far-left extremists, one minister said, “He is so drunk on himself that he is in a bubble. In every moment, he sincerely believes, even today, that he does the best thing that can possibly be done and says the best thing that can possibly be said.”

Another minister told reporters, “It was a completely surreal scene. It was as if he hasn’t understood that he’s lost, hasn’t understood that because of him his political movement is dead, hasn’t understand that now he inspires only rage in those who once supported him, hasn’t understood that his words now ring hollow, hasn’t understood that he has lost all his political capital.” (more)

The French political manipulators (like Samantha Power) are repeating all the familiar moves – like putting agent provocateurs on the streets, people dressed in Nazi uniforms – to give the appearance of the nationalists as a “right-wing” extremist group.   The Canadian political manipulators did the same thing during the Trucker rally, and the USA version of the same people created the optics for J6.  It’s all the same playbook.

All of the opposition research files on the Marine Le Pen supported nationalist candidates are being dropped in advance of the Sunday election, in an effort to stop the conservative French from achieving victory.  These are all direct plays from the revolutionary communist playbook.

FRANCE – The French interior minister, Gerald Darmanin, said some 30,000 police will be deployed across France late on Sunday following the second round of elections to ensure there is no trouble.

Late last night, the French prime minister, Gabriel Attal, said candidate Prisca Thevenot – the government spokesperson – and members of her campaign team were attacked by four individuals while putting up election posters. “Violence and intimidation have no place in our democracy,” he said.

Today, Thevenot thanked law enforcement and said “violence is never the answer.”

The French prosecutor’s office said it opened an investigation into an assault with a weapon against a public official.

A new poll from Ifop shows that 47% of voters believe the far right National Rally will win an absolute majority of seats in Sunday’s election.

The far right National Rally’s Marine Le Pen argued her party can still win an absolute majority. “I think there is still the capacity to have an absolute majority with the electorate turning out in a final effort to get what they want,” she said.

Raphaël Glucksmann, who led the French Socialist-Place Publique list in the European elections, has cautioned against a belief that “we have saved things” already and called for urgency to defeat the far right.

The Ecologists’ Marine Tondelier has criticised the far-right National Rally’s Jordan Bardella, arguing that his party is allowing some candidates who made racist, anti-Semitic and misogynistic comments to remain on the ballot (read more)

It’s all playing out exactly as we predicted – SEE HERE

If the communists (Democrats) lose to the nationalists (Republicans), they will burn France to the ground.

Watch closely, because when Donald Trump wins in November, the same thing will likely happen here! 

[cowboyusa]

Dumb comment.

[Theoria]

Voter turnout at 61.4%, highest since 1981.

[Owen]

Forgot Uranium

[cowboyusa]

They are in a way, as Hitler liked Islamists, and tyrany. No help from us this time.

[chajin]

Macron’s so-called centrists united with the far left.

Lesson of the Day: true conservatives have no allies. In a choice between shepherds and wolves, the sheep in between always choose the wolf.

(There's a reason why Jesus called Himself the Shepherd, and Hitler called himself the wolf.)

[Candor7]

BUll crap....Fox is reporting that exit polls show LePin in the lead.

AP is a reliable source ? Not likely.
