The Results Are In
Interior Ministry Confirms Results
The French Interior Ministry has confirmed the final results of Sunday's election, which saw a 66.63% voter turnout. The results are as follows:
President: Emmanuel Macron (58.55%)
National Assembly: La République En Marche! (30.28%)
These results represent a major victory for Macron and his party, who will now control the presidency and the National Assembly. It is the first time since 1988 that a single party has won both the presidency and the National Assembly in the same election.
The results also represent a major defeat for Marine Le Pen and her National Front party, who had hoped to make gains in this election. Le Pen won only 33.90% of the vote, and her party failed to win a single seat in the National Assembly.
The election results are a major turning point in French politics. Macron's victory represents a rejection of the far right and a return to mainstream politics. It is also a sign of hope for those who believe in the future of Europe.
