The scenario of an absolute majority for Marine Le Pen’s far-right National Rally party in the second round of Sunday’s parliamentary elections is remote, according to a poll by Harris Interactive.

In particular, according to the Harris Interactive poll, the National Coalition and its allies will receive 190 to 220 seats, far short of the 289 seats needed for a majority.

The left wing coalition New Popular Frontaccording to the results of the same poll, is expected to be in second place, with 159-183 seats, while the centrist camp of the President Emmanuel Macron appears in third place with 110-135 seats.

In the aftermath of the results of the first round of the elections that highlighted the National Rally first, Le Pen, estimating that her dynamics will expand, excluded both herself and her candidate for prime minister, Jordan Bardelathe possibility of forming a government.

A position from which she retreated on Tuesday after the concerted effort of leftists and centrists to block her path to victory, withdrawing their third-ranked candidates from the districts in order not to split their forces against the candidate of the National Rally. Marine Le Pen has said that if her party fails to secure an absolute majority on its own, she will seek allies to form a government.

“We want to rule, to be extremely clear. And if we are missing a few MPs from the majority,” Le Pen told France Inter Radio on Tuesday, “we will go to others and say: ‘Are you ready to join us in a new majority with a new policy?’
