@eal Also, while the presidential election is seen as the main election in France, it is not, because the president needs a majority at the parliament to get a government on their side and apply their program.
A president without a majority on their side at the parliament has almost no power. Last time it happened, it was between 1997 and 2002, with J. Chirac as president, and L. Jospin as prime minister. In this situation, the prime minister really led the country, not the president.
The president can revoke the parliament, but only a year after the previous election of the parliament.
The election of the parliament will occur in June.
