After the first round of regional elections on June 20, 2021, the French presidential majority party - La République en Marche - did not manage to come out on top in any region. In addition, the abstention rate - 66.7 percent - is the highest ever recorded in the country. For many French people, these two elements were synonymous with personal failure for President Emmanuel Macron, with over half of his own party's voters agreeing with this statement. This belief was most-strongly expressed by voters of the Rassemblement National, where 88 percent believed that the blame lay with Macron.
