18:45 – What can the coalition of LFI with its allies hope for these legislative elections in Valenciennes?
The voters of Valenciennes had offered 22.1% of their votes to Jean-Luc Mélenchon two months ago, for the first round of the last presidential election. And that’s still without counting the socialist and environmentalist votes. Yannick Jadot and Anne Hidalgo had failed at 4.0% and 1.32% respectively in the first round of the presidential election. The LFI-PS-EELV bloc therefore leaves with a theoretical potential of 27.42% in Valenciennes for these legislative elections.

4:30 p.m. – Do the polls of voting intentions make sense for the 2022 legislative elections in Valenciennes?
The majority fell a hair’s breadth from the LFI-PS-EELV block in the polls this Friday evening. Marine Le Pen’s National Rally has continued to approach 20%. These national trends of the last few days will undoubtedly have a resonance in Valenciennes this Sunday. But of course, local specificities will have to be taken into account. However, the first round of the 2022 presidential election, in Valenciennes this time, had turned to the advantage of Emmanuel Macron with 28.95% of the vote. Next came Marine Le Pen at 24.9%, then Jean-Luc Mélenchon at 22.1% and Éric Zemmour at 6.98%.
