Macron's Ensemble and Mélenchau's left alliance on the second lap beforehand, EH Bai out but continues to grow
- The Macron coalition has been the most voted in the continental Basque Country: Ensemble-Majorité Présidentielle. The second has been the left alliance NUPES. EH Bai was third and failed to send representatives to the second round. However, it has increased considerably from the 2017 votes. It achieved then 12,778 and this year it was 16,385.
The first of the two rounds to the French Parliament took place on Sunday. Those who have obtained 12.5% of the votes of those on the electoral list will be eligible for the second round. There are three constituencies of votes in the Northern Basque Country and the name of its Members is clarified:
Annick Trounday (Ensemble) and Iñaki Etxaniz (NUPES) have moved to the fourth round of elections. Fifth, Sandra Pereira (NUPES) and Florence Lasserre (Ensemble) and sixth, Vincent Bru (Ensemble) and Tom Dubois-Robin (NUPES).
The cities of Labourd are divided into the fifth and sixth voting district, while the fourth group includes Baja Navarra and Zuberoa occupying part of Bearno (some towns of Baja Navarra are also linked to the fifth).
Abstention was over 50% on Sunday at state level. We will have to see what influence it has on the second round.
