France Votes in the 2027 Presidential Election
- The president is elected over two rounds; a candidate needs more than half the vote to win outright in the first.
- Polymarket: Marine Le Pen 37%, Edouard Philippe 25%, Jean-Luc Melenchon 13%, Francois Hollande 5.2%, David Lisnard 5.1%.
- The market covers an early election too, and resolves on the second round.
- Macron is barred from a third consecutive term.

The French government announced the date after a cabinet meeting on 30 June 2026, and the official service-public.gouv.fr[2] page now gives the rounds as "April 18 and May 2, 2027". This replaces the earlier reading, which derived April 11 from the constitutional window because Polymarket[3] said only "around April 2027".

Something missing or wrong? Say it in your own words: a link that backs this pin up, a different start or end date and why, or a fact it lacks or gets wrong. The AI checks it against this pin's sources, searches for better ones, and adds any page that backs you up. The pin's own sources still count most.
