France’s 2027 presidential race is taking shape with Marine Le Pen leading the first round and Jean-Luc Mélenchon emerging as a major contender for second place, according to a September Cluster17 poll for POLITICO. Le Pen was measured at 30–31% across three tested scenarios, while Mélenchon stood at 19–20%, with former Prime Minister Édouard Philippe also reaching around 19% in some configurations. The poll found particularly strong support for Mélenchon among voters aged 18 to 34, where he reached 47%. The findings also show significant resistance to both candidates beyond their core electorates. A Mélenchon–Le Pen second round would represent an unusual departure from France’s traditional presidential contests, but the poll measures first-round voting intentions and does not establish a future runoff result. #france, #france2027, #frenchelection, #frenchelections, #marinelepen, #jeanlucmelenchon, #melenchon, #lepen, #nationalrally, #lfi, #frenchpolitics, #europe, #europeanpolitics
