National Rally Leads in Polls, Turning Tables in Election

According to poll observers, the snap election is a significant milestone in France’s political life, with 66 percent of voters planning to participate on Sunday, a 17 percent increase from the 2022 elections. Polls indicate the National Rally, led by Marine Le Pen, is ahead with 35 percent and could potentially secure an absolute majority in Parliament. At the Worldwide Freedom Initiative event organized by Republicans Overseas, France’s branch president, Randy Yaloz, compared Ms. Le Pen’s campaign to Trump’s 2016 run, highlighting the real possibility of a National Rally victory.
