USPA NEWS -
Jean Luc Melenchon the leader of NUPES, leftist party, wants to be appointed the Prime Minister, as he claimed this slogan, and affirmation, since he was the 2st candidate winning the 1st round of Presidential Election in last April 2022. He was, actually elected closely just behind Marine Lepen, with a tight gap of only 421,421 votes difference with Marine Le Pen (23.15%), when he was ranked behind her, with 21.95%. Since then, Jean Luc Melenchon addressed a remarkable speech, after the release of the official results and announced the legislative elections to be the 3rd round.
Therefore naturally he imagines a cohabitation with the Presidential party of Emmanuel Macron, "Ensemble" ("Together"), with its very high score of the results of the vote of the 1st of the legislative elections of Sunday June 12, 22. Indeed, Ensemble (« Together », Presidential Party) won this first round of the legislative elections with 25.75% of the votes, ahead of the left-wing alliance NUPES which won 25.66% of the votes, with very few seats in the National Assembly. Only 21,442 votes separate the two opposing coalitions, both in terms of their program and their civic and political approach.

"TOGETHER" THE PRESIDENTIAL's PARTY RISKS NOT HAVING THE ABSOLUTE MAJORITY TO GOVERN
This very tight result with a very close score, almost equal between the Together group (Presidential Majority) calls into question the absolute Presidential majority. According to estimates, political scientists and experts in this group Ensemble, could win between 260 and 290 parliamentary seats. However, it takes 289 (because there are 577 seats) to obtain an absolute majority in the hemicycle of the National Assembly. On the other hand, the leftist group NUPES, according to estimates, could obtain between 150 and 190 seats, placing it as the first opposition force in the National Assembly. NUPES, whose leader Jean Luc Melenchon, who was the leader of LFI La France Insoumise, already had a group in the National Assembly with 17 deputies who were extremely active and noticed during sessions in parliament, by their blows of big operations coup fist, and a communication (You need at least 15 to form a group). Jean Luc Melenchon succeeded in recreating a political family of the left which was in agony with a socialist party adrift, especially since the masterful failure of Anne Hidalgo, (Mayor of Paris) who lost the presidential election with a score so weak (only 300,000 Parisians out of the 10 million voters had voted for it. It takes at least 15 to form a group. A cohabitation can be opposing NUPES, the leftist group and Ensemble, the right-centrist group of Emmanuel Macron’s, considering the tight outcomes of the 1st lap of the vote.
