What

President Emmanuel Macron called a snap French parliamentary election in June 2024 following a defeat by the far-right National Rally in European elections.

Who

The election was declared by President Emmanuel Macron, with the National Rally led by Jordan Bardella poised to become the largest party in parliament.

Context

The decision to dissolve parliament came within an hour of exit polls showing Macron's Renaissance party being trounced, triggering a campaign shorter than 20 days.

Stakes

The election on June 30 and July 7 determined France's political landscape, with the outcome potentially altering the balance of power between centrist and far-right forces.

Note: The market description asks if the election date is declared by December 31, 2025, but since the election was called in June 2024, the condition was already met before the market's active period.
