In France's upcoming high-stakes legislative election, absentee voters are urgently delegating their voting rights to trusted individuals due to a compressed timeline between President Macron dissolving the National Assembly and the first round of the election on June 30. The surge of 410,000 requests in the first week, 6½ times higher than previous elections, demonstrates the significance voters attach to this election, reshaping the political landscape even before voting begins. The prospect of a far-right government has sparked left-wing parties to unite in opposition, highlighting the election's critical importance in voters' agendas and political life.
