Candidates for the legislative elections had until June 16 to declare themselves. In Gard, there will be 36, five in the first and fourth, six in the second and sixth, seven in the third and fifth.
The early legislative elections, caused by the dissolution of the National Assembly decided by Emmanuel Macron on the evening of the European elections, will take place on Sunday June 30 and July 7.
In Gard, there will be 36 candidates. Two years ago, there were 68. This drop can be explained by the suddenness of these elections which did not allow certain candidates to organize themselves in time. It is the third and fifth constituencies which will provide the most candidates. Here is the detail by constituency.
