[Mis à jour le 20 juin 2022 à 13h47] The 577 deputies elected to the National Assembly in the 2022 legislative elections are now all known. In the night from Sunday to Monday, the Ministry of the Interior completed the final results of this election, which resulted in the inability of the various political parties represented to unite a clear majority. Together! Emmanuel Macron’s coalition of candidates, has itself failed to bring together the 289 elected representatives necessary for an absolute majority.
All the deputies elected this Sunday, June 19 will meet in the coming days at the Palais Bourbon for the solemn start of the 16th legislature. Elisabeth Borne’s general policy speech, scheduled for July 5, will be the first highlight of this new page. And the climate promises to be tense, the executive being already challenged by the opposition for the weakness of the majority. The elected Macronists won 245 seats, ahead of the left-wing Nupes coalition and its allies with 131 seats and the RN which achieved a historic breakthrough with 89 seats. The new hemicycle will have 37.3% women, down from 2017 (39%).
After five years in which the deputies of the presidential majority had voted for all of the Head of State’s projects practically without discussion, he inherited instead a National Assembly where from now on two powerful oppositions would sit which were resolutely hostile to him and have been pounding his reform projects for weeks, including that of the very sensitive pensions. For Dominique Rousseau, professor of constitutional law at the Panthéon-Sorbonne University, who spoke to AFP, Emmanuel Macron’s second term will in any case be “a five-year period of negotiations, of parliamentary compromises. This Jupiter will no longer rule”.

What is the new composition of the National Assembly?
The group of the majority Together! came out on top in these legislative elections, with 245 seats in the Assembly. A victory therefore for Emmanuel Macron, but a victory far from the objective set, the head of state harvests “only” a relative majority during these elections. A result that will force him to make certain alliances, we think in particular of the right of the hemicycle and the group Les Républicains. The Nupes does not obtain either the announced triumph with a little more than 130 deputies against 200 expected. The National Rally achieves the highest score in the history of the party with 89 seats in the National Assembly. With such a score, Marine Le Pen’s party officially becomes the third political force in the country, ahead of the Republicans. Here is a representation of the balances of this new Assembly:
The Republic on the Move and its allies therefore lose a hundred of the 346 LREM deputies placed in the National Assembly in 2017. What to shake the majority and already put the executive, and in particular the Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne, in cantilever . If she should staying in Matignon, Elisabeth Borne will be at the head of a government which will have to negotiate all the texts with other political forces. An uncomfortable mission, a symptom of a political defeat and a crisis of confidence two months just after Emmanuel Macron’s victory in the presidential election, already mixed.
Negotiations in the Assembly therefore promise to take longer, given that in the French parliamentary system, all decisions must be adopted by an absolute majority. A task that could be more or less complex, the extent of the political blockage depending on the number of deputies that Together! in the elections to achieve an absolute majority. “Below ten, he will easily find the necessary allies to make the count. Above twenty, the task looks much more complicated”, explained for L’Express the CNRS researcher Bruno Cautrès just before the election. . However, more than forty elected officials are missing to reach this majority…
The President of the National Assembly is the fourth personality of the State and is appointed by a secret vote of all elected during the first session of the new National Assembly. This year the election will fall on June 28, 2022, the date of the opening of the new legislature. In addition to a representative role, the President of the National Assembly acts as arbiter during debates between deputies by ensuring compliance with the rules and ensuring equality of speaking time. Patron of the Assembly, he is by extension the president of other internal groups in the chamber such as the Bureau or the Committee for the evaluation and control of public policies, but he is also the president of Congress when Parliament is in complete with the Senate.
The fourth character of the State also has a power of appointment by being able to choose a member of the Constitutional Council at each renewal of the latter but also two of the six people who sit on the Superior Council of the Judiciary.
