Voting is underway in mainland France on Sunday in pivotal runoff elections that could hand a historic victory to Marine Le Pen’s far-right National Rally and its inward-looking, anti-immigrant vision — or produce a hung parliament and political deadlock.

French President Emmanuel Macron took a huge gamble in dissolving parliament and calling for the elections after his centrists were trounced in European elections on June 9.

The snap elections in this nuclear-armed nation will influence the war in Ukraine, global diplomacy and Europe’s economic stability, and they’re almost certain to undercut Macron for the remaining three years of his presidency.

The first round on June 30 saw the largest gains ever for the anti-immigration, nationalist National Rally, led by Marine Le Pen.

A bit over 49 million people are registered to vote in the elections, which will determine which party controls the 577-member National Assembly, France’s influential lower house of parliament, and who will be prime minister. If support is further eroded for Macron’s weak centrist majority, he will be forced to share power with parties opposed to most of his pro-business, pro-European Union policies.

As of 5 p.m. local time, turnout was at 59.7%, according to France’s Interior Ministry, the highest at that time on the voting day since 1981.

周日,法国大陆正在进行关键的决选投票,这可能会让马琳·勒庞的极右翼国民阵线及其注重内政的反移民愿景取得历史性胜利,或者导致悬浮议会和政治僵局。 在6月9日的欧洲选举中中间派被击败后,法国总统埃马纽埃尔·马克龙下了一场豪赌,解散议会并呼吁举行选举。 这个拥核国家的提前选举将影响乌克兰战争、全球外交和欧洲经济稳定,而且几乎肯定会削弱马克龙剩余三年的总统任期。 6 月 30 日的第一轮选举中,由马琳·勒庞领导的反移民国民阵线取得了有史以来最大的胜利。 超过 4900 万人登记参加选举,选举将决定哪个政党控制拥有 577 名议员的国民议会(法国颇具影响力的下议院),以及谁将担任总理。如果马克龙弱势的中间派多数派支持率进一步受到削弱,他将被迫与反对他大部分亲商业、亲欧盟政策的政党分享权力。截至下午 5 点根据法国内政部的数据,这是自 1981 年以来投票日当天的最高投票率。
