Left-wing candidates win mayoral elections in Paris and Marseille
Share:
Left-wing candidates secured victories in mayoral elections in France's two largest cities, Paris and Marseille, according to early estimates. In Marseille, the far-right National Rally (RN) candidate Franck Allisio was unsuccessful in challenging the incumbent. The National Rally, led by Marine Le Pen, represents France's main far-right political force and has been gaining support in recent years, making these urban defeats significant for the party's broader electoral strategy.
