Al primo turno, gli elettori votano liberamente per il loro candidato preferito. Al secondo turno, invece, possono scegliere tra i candidati più votati, garantendo che il vincitore abbia un ampio sostegno. Per essere eletti al primo turno, i candidati devono ottenere la maggioranza assoluta dei voti e almeno il 25% degli aventi diritto. Se nessuno raggiunge questo obiettivo, si va al ballottaggio tra i candidati che hanno superato la soglia di sbarramento del 12,5%. Tra il primo e il secondo turno, i candidati e i partiti negoziano e formano alleanze per consolidare il loro sostegno.

Ogni cittadino francese maggiorenne, iscritto nelle liste elettorali e con pieni diritti civili e politici, può votare per eleggere i deputati. Le elezioni si svolgono a suffragio universale diretto con un sistema maggioritario uninominale a due turni.

Alta affluenza alle urne in Nuova Caledonia, territorio francese nel Sud del Pacifico, per il primo turno di un’elezione che potrebbe dare alla Francia per la prima volta un governo di estrema destra in coabitazione con il presidente Emmanuel Macron. \”L’affluenza stimata alle 12.00 (le 3:00 in Italia) era del 32,39%. Alle elezioni precedenti, nel 2022, era stata del 13,06% e del 15,76% nel 2017\”, ha annunciato l’Alto commissariato della Repubblica in un comunicato. \”Il voto si sta svolgendo a larga maggioranza, senza incidenti e in modo sicuro\”, ha aggiunto, in un momento in cui la tensione rimane alta nell’arcipelago dopo i disordini causati dalla riforma elettorale respinta dal movimento pro-indipendenza. Circa 229.000 abitanti della Nuova Caledonia sono stati chiamati alle urne per eleggere due deputati per il territorio francese. All’apertura dei seggi, alle 7:00 ora locale, si sono formate lunghe code nei vari seggi elettorali di Noumea, come ha osservato un giornalista dell’Afp. I seggi chiuderanno alle 17:00 ora locale (le 8:00 in Italia).

Sono oltre 4mila i candidati che si presentano in 577 circoscrizioni. Tra i candidati, il blocco formato dai partiti di sinistra rappresenta una delle principali novità. Questa alleanza, denominata Nuovo Fronte Popolare (NFP), si ispira al Fronte Popolare del 1936, formato per contrastare i fascismi in Europa. Ne fanno parte La France Insoumise di Jean-Luc Mélenchon, il gruppo formato dal Partito Socialista e da Place Publique di Raphael Glucksmann, i Verdi e il Partito Comunista. L’alleanza di sinistra ha già collaborato nelle precedenti elezioni legislative del 2022, ma si era presentata divisa alle recenti elezioni europee a causa di divergenze sulla politica estera. A destra, invece, il Rassemblement National di Marine Le Pen è il grande favorito di queste elezioni. In alcuni collegi, il RN ha trovato un accordo con ex membri dei Repubblicani e di Reconquête, che hanno deciso di seguire gli ex leader dei rispettivi partiti, Éric Ciotti e Marion Maréchal, nipote di Marine Le Pen. Il terzo blocco è l’attuale coalizione di governo, che include Renaissance di Macron, Modem di François Bayrou e Horizons dell’ex primo ministro Edouard Philippe.

Quello francese è un sistema a due turni, che mira a garantire che gli eletti abbiano un forte sostegno, riducendo la frammentazione politica e promuovendo la stabilità governativa. Il secondo turno è previsto per il 7 luglio. Queste elezioni sono state indette dal Presidente Emmanuel Macron dopo la sconfitta del suo schieramente alle elezioni europee e il trionfo dell’estrema destra.

The voting system

In the first round, voters freely vote for their favorite candidate. In the second round, however, they can choose from the most voted candidates, ensuring that the winner has broad support. To be elected in the first round, candidates must obtain an absolute majority of the votes and at least 25% of those entitled to vote. If no one reaches this objective, a run-off takes place between the candidates who have exceeded the threshold of 12.5%. Between the first and second rounds, candidates and parties negotiate and form alliances to consolidate their support.

High turnout in New Caledonia

High voter turnout in New Caledonia, a French territory in the South Pacific, for the first round of an election that could give France for the first time a far-right government in cohabitation with President Emmanuel Macron. “The estimated turnout at 12.00 (3.00 in Italy) was 32.39%. In the previous elections, in 2022, it had been 13.06% and 15.76% in 2017”, announced the High Commissioner of the Republic in a statement. “The vote is taking place with a large majority, without incident and in a safe manner,” he added, at a time when tension remains high in the archipelago after the unrest caused by the electoral reform rejected by the pro-independence movement. Around 229,000 inhabitants of New Caledonia were called to the polls to elect two deputies for the French territory. When the polls opened at 7:00 local time, long queues formed at various polling stations in Noumea, as an AFP journalist observed. Polls will close at 5pm local time (8am in Italy).

The candidates and the alignments

There are over 4,000 candidates running in 577 constituencies. Among the candidates, the bloc formed by left-wing parties represents one of the main novelties. This alliance, called the New Popular Front (NFP), is inspired by the Popular Front of 1936, formed to fight fascism in Europe. It includes Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s La France Insoumise, the group formed by the Socialist Party and Raphael Glucksmann’s Place Publique, the Greens and the Communist Party. The left-wing alliance has already worked together in the previous legislative elections in 2022, but was divided in the recent European elections due to differences on foreign policy. On the right, Marine Le Pen’s Rassemblement National is the big favorite in these elections. In some constituencies, the RN has reached an agreement with former members of the Republicans and Reconquête, who have decided to follow the former leaders of their respective parties, Éric Ciotti and Marion Maréchal, Marine Le Pen’s niece. The third bloc is the current governing coalition, which includes Macron’s Renaissance, François Bayrou’s Modem and former Prime Minister Edouard Philippe’s Horizons.
