![Result of the 2024 legislative elections in La Roche-sur-Yon (85000) – 1st round [PUBLIE]](https://euro.dayfr.com/content/uploads/2024/07/01/e0e0d4163f.jpg)
19:53 – Left coalition votes coveted
The tendency to the left is also to be gauged during these legislative elections, since we do not know the decision of those who voted for the New Popular and Social Union (Nupes), which had made a breakthrough in the last legislative elections, but which no longer exists. in the political landscape. The New Popular Front, which is looking for a leader, should bring together part of it. Glucksmann’s PS-Place publique list finished at 21.85% in La Roche-sur-Yon on June 9. But the left aims much better in the legislative elections, since the revamped union virtually amounts to 38% this time, combining the scores of Manon Aubry (LFI), Marie Toussaint (EELV) and Léon Deffontaine (PCF). The windfall seems significant. During the first round of the legislative elections in 2022, in La Roche-sur-Yon, Nupes had also accumulated 34.77% of the votes on average in the 2 constituencies located in the city. A score to finally be compared with the 34% of left-wing voters in the first round of the presidential election (23.85% for Jean-Luc Mélenchon, 7.52% for Yannick Jadot, 2.38% for Fabien Roussel and 2.84% for Anne Hidalgo).
18:42 – The National Rally in La Roche-sur-Yon, a favorite in the legislative elections?
Despite rapid and sometimes radical changes, some conclusions are still necessary. The RN’s progress already seems strong in La Roche-sur-Yon between Jordan Bardella’s score in 2019 (13.57%) and the one it obtained on June 9 in the European elections (19.65%), of the order of 6 points. But the rise is shaping up to be even more significant in the 2024 legislative elections, with opinion polls giving the RN a result of 30 to 35% across the country, a far cry from the 18.68% at the time. The RN could thus be at nearly 20% locally on June 30, if the dynamics were the same as in the European elections, or even more depending on the polling dynamics.
15:31 – La Roche-sur-Yon not really in phase with France during the elections of June 9
Looking back a little less far also seems obvious when analyzing the vote of this Sunday, June 30. With a result of 19.65% in fact, Jordan Bardella was overtaken during the European elections of June in La Roche-sur-Yon by Raphaël Glucksmann with 21.85%.
14:32 – 34.15% for Emmanuel Macron in the 2022 presidential election in La Roche-sur-Yon
It is certainly the election of the head of state which is the best indicator of the inclination of the inhabitants of a municipality. Point to remember: the RN had collected a better score in the 2022 legislative elections in La Roche-sur-Yon in the first round than Marine Le Pen herself during the presidential election, since she had garnered 14.08% in the 1st round there . In order, we nevertheless found Emmanuel Macron in the lead with 34.15%, followed by Jean-Luc Mélenchon with 23.85% and Marine Le Pen with 14.08%. The RN candidate finally failed behind Emmanuel Macron in the second round (with 26.92% against 73.08%).
12:32 – What can the scores of the 2022 legislative elections teach for La Roche-sur-Yon?
Looking back to analyze the most recent legislative election seems rather sensible at the time of this new meeting of June 30 and July 7. In 2022, in the legislative elections, the National Rally failed in the first round in the commune of La Roche-sur-Yon, grabbing 9.98% of the votes there, compared to 34.77% on average for the Nupes candidates spread across the 2 constituencies covering the commune. In detail, for this first round, we found in the lead in the city Lucie Etonno (NUP) in the 1st constituency with 35.21% and Nicolas Helary (NUP) in the 2nd constituency with 34.42%. In the second round, the RN also failed, still leaving first place to rival candidates bearing the LFI-PS-PC-EELV label with 49.95% against 50.05% for the winners. The list of winners in the city was therefore this time Lucie Etonno (NUP) in the 1st constituency with 51.2% and Béatrice Bellamy (ENS) in the 2nd constituency with 50.88%.
11:02 – Impact of demographic characteristics on the political landscape of La Roche-sur-Yon

In the urban area, 15.49% of residents are children, and 26.24% are 60 years and older. The demographic pyramid can have an effect on political orientations, particularly with regard to education and health care. The percentage of households with at least one car (77.77%) highlights a dependence on the automobile. This factor could affect the 18,869 voters on issues of transport and road development. The number of CAF beneficiaries (27.86%) reveals family support requirements, while the rate of employees on fixed-term contracts (11.6%) highlights challenges of job stability. The percentage of students, 8.45% in La Roche-sur-Yon, highlights the presence of a young and educated population, likely to stimulate innovation and creativity in the region.
