The poll forecasts proved to be correct since the National Rally performed well in the legislative elections following the dissolution of the National Assembly following the European elections. In Rennes and Lyon, many stores protected their windows for fear of spillovers following the announcement of the results.
Numerous demonstrations will be held in several cities to encourage the population to stand up against the RN in view of the second round which will be held on Sunday July 7. This will be the case in Paris, Lille, Marseille, Rennes, Bordeaux, Lyon, Strasbourg, Bayonne, Nantes and Valenciennes. A neo-Nazi march cannot be ruled out in the streets of Paris either, as was the case on May 11.
