The first round of the 2022 French presidential election was held on 10 April 2022. A run-off will be held between the top two candidates on 24 April 2022. The incumbent president of France, Emmanuel Macron of La République En Marche! (LREM), who won the 2017 presidential election and whose first term lasts until 13 May 2022, announced on 3 March 2022 that he was launching his re-election bid to a second five-year term for which he is eligible under the Constitution of France. His opponent in the second round is likely to be Marine Le Pen, leader of the National Rally (RN), whom he defeated in 2017.

The election will take place just before the 2022 legislative election, that will be held on 12 June with runoffs on 19 June, to elect the 577 members of the National Assembly, the lower house of the French Parliament.

As of 2022, no president has won reelection since the 2002 French presidential election.

Background

Under Article 7 of the Constitution of France, the President of the Republic is elected to a five-year term in a two-round election. If no candidate secures an absolute majority of votes in the first round, a second round is held two weeks later between the two candidates who received the most votes.[3] According to the Constitution of France, the first round of the presidential election must be held between 20 and 35 days before the transition of power at the end of the five-year term of the incumbent officeholder. As Emmanuel Macron took office on 14 May 2017, the transition of power is expected to take place on 13 May 2022. Correspondingly, the first round of the presidential election will be held between 8 and 23 April 2022, with the second round held two weeks after the first.[4] On 13 July 2021, Government Spokesman Gabriel Attal announced the dates for the election, respectively 10 April 2022 for the first round and 24 April 2022 for the eventual second round.[5]

To be listed on the first-round ballot, candidates needed to secure 500 signatures (often referred to as parrainages in French) from national or local elected officials from at least 30 different departments or overseas collectivities, with no more than a tenth of these signatories from any single department. The signatures were submitted to the Constitutional Council, which is the sole authority to designate participants.[6]

Campaign

Following the 2017 presidential election, The Republicans (LR) sent its members a questionnaire on the topic of the "refoundation" of the party; of the 40,000 respondents, 70% voted against an open primary like that which was held in 2016 to determine the party nominee.[7] In a document dated 17 October 2017, the Socialist Party (PS) noted that the financing of the 2022 presidential campaign was not assured despite "economic restructuring" but still planned to spend €12,000,000, the maximum legally permitted before the first round. According to the report, the party's leadership had seriously considered the possibility of not presenting a Socialist candidate in 2022.[8]

Marine Le Pen, the president of the National Rally (RN), announced on 16 January 2020 that she was running in the election. She previously ran in the 2012 and 2017 presidential elections as the party's candidate, then called the National Front. She came third in 2012 with 17.9% of the vote in the first round and second in 2017 with 21.3% of the vote in the first round and 33.9% of the vote in the second round. Le Pen was elected to the National Assembly in the 2017 legislative election.[9]

Jean Lassalle, who ran in the 2017 presidential election under the Résistons! banner, coming in seventh place with 1.2% of the vote, announced that he will run again.[10] In 2020, MP Joachim Son-Forget, a radiologist who was elected to the National Assembly for La République En Marche! in 2017, formed a new political party called Valeur Absolue and announced his intention to enter the race for the presidency. He had resigned from the LREM group after posting tweets in 2018 that were deemed sexist; he then joined the UDI and Independents group in 2019 before resigning his membership later that year.[11]

On 8 November 2020, Jean-Luc Mélenchon, founder of La France Insoumise (LFI), announced that he was running in the election. He previously ran in the 2012 presidential election for the Left Front (coming fourth with 11.1% of the vote in the first round) and in the 2017 presidential election for La France Insoumise (coming fourth again with 19.5% of the vote in the first round). Mélenchon was elected to the National Assembly in 2017.[12]

In November 2021, Ensemble Citoyens was founded. It is a political coalition composed of the presidential majority led under Emmanuel Macron.[13]

In January 2022, Éric Zemmour's party, Reconquête, founded the month prior, gained a member of the National Assembly in Guillaume Peltier, previously elected as a member of The Republicans,[14] as well as two Members of the European Parliament (MEPs) when Jérôme Rivière and Gilbert Collard defected from Le Pen's National Rally.[15][16] Previously, Son-Forget, who had declared he would run for the presidency, rallied behind Zemmour's candidacy. In early February 2022, the party gained a third MEP when Maxette Grisoni-Pirbakas defected from the National Rally.[17] Stéphane Ravier became Zemmour's first supporter in the Senate after he left the National Rally mid-February 2022.[18]

In February 2022, a wave of defections hit Valérie Pécresse, candidate put forward by The Republicans, in favour of Macron.[19] She was accused by members of the party's centrist wing of trying to pander to the voters of Zemmour,[20] whose sharp rise in the polls has been qualified as "meteoric".[21] During a rally in February 2022, Pécresse said "in ten years time (...) will we be a sovereign nation, a US satellite or a Chinese trading post? Will we be unified or divided? Nothing is written, whether it is loss of economic status, or the Great Replacement". She was criticised for referring to the Great Replacement; she later said that her mention was not an endorsement of what she considered to be a "theory of hate".[22][23][24][25] She was widely seen to make the comments of the Great Replacement to counter her two major far-right rival candidates, Le Pen and Zemmour.

The 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine that began on 24 February had significant implications for the campaign. As media coverage switched to covering the war, Macron's polling improved significantly during the crisis.[26] Le Pen and Zemmour were made to explain historic statements of praise for Vladimir Putin.[27][28][29] In a 14 March 2022 interview with newspaper Le Figaro, Senate President Gérard Larcher, a supporter of Pécresse, put into question the legitimacy of a possible second Macron term, stating: "If there is no campaign, the question of the legitimacy of the winner will arise."[30] Those comments echoed Macron's refusal to participate in any debate with the other candidates prior to the election's first round.[31]

Marion Maréchal of the Le Pen family, granddaughter of National Front (renamed National Rally in 2018) founder Jean-Marie Le Pen and niece of its current leader Marine Le Pen formalised her support for Zemmour at a large rally in Toulon on 6 March 2022.[32][33]

In the final days before the first round of voting, Le Pen's polling numbers improved to within the margin of error of defeating Macron in the second round, while those of Pécresse and Zemmour fell.[34][35][36]

Candidates

On 7 March 2022, the Constitutional Council published the names of the twelve candidates who received 500 valid sponsorships, with the order of the list determined by drawing lots.[37]
