Following a major setback in the European Parliament elections in June, French President Macron chose to dissolve the parliament and hold early elections, hoping that young voters would step up to defeat the rising far-right forces. However, the first round of elections in France showed the far-right party National Rally leading with 33% of the votes, while Macron's centrist alliance ranked third.
