This Sunday, June 9, the Europe-Ecology-The Greens list will know the number of elected officials sent to the European Parliament after the publication of the first results at 8 p.m. Will EELV manage to create a surprise?
On her Europe-Ecology-The Greens list for the European elections, Marie Toussaint includes party leaders, activists and people from civil society. But will this selection be enough to send elected officials to the European Parliament? And if so, how much? The EELV candidate hopes, at a minimum, to keep the same number of environmentalist seats in the European Parliament and, if possible, obtain more.
But the polls on the results of the European elections, published before Friday evening and the end of the official campaign, were pessimistic as to the candidate’s chances of doing as well as in the last election, when the EELV party had established itself as the first left-wing force. The difficulties encountered by Marie Toussaint do not seem to come from ecological issues which are always a concern for the French, but from the current political and social climate coupled with the divide between the left-wing parties which does not serve the interests of the Europe-Ecologie- group. The Greens. So, to find out the number of EELV elected officials who will sit in the European Parliament, tune in this Sunday at 8 p.m. for the result of the 2024 European elections.

How many candidates are eligible according to the poll results?
A list must obtain at least 5% of the votes in the European elections to see some of its candidates elected. The number of people elected out of the 81 candidates present on the lists of each party is proportional to the result obtained on election day. A minimum of 5% gets 4 seats, 10% gets 8 seats, etc.
The polls on the results of the European elections, published before Friday evening and the end of the official campaign, announced that they were not unanimous on the ability of Marie Toussaint to obtain seats, some granted her a minimum of 4 to 6 seats, when others deprived him of it. It should be kept in mind that poll results and projections are only predictions representing voting trends at a given time and cannot be understood as reliable predictions. It is preferable to wait until 8 p.m. and the official results to know the exact number of seats gleaned by the Ecologists in the European Parliament.
