Most crucial crises faced by France according to the French 2022, by party preference

With less than three months to go before the presidential elections, the French were polled on their opinion of the issues at stake in the election campaign. Yet, when asked which of the crises the country is going through at the moment seems to them the most crucial, the social crisis comes out on top, although it is mentioned less frequently among the supporters of the right-wing parties.

Indeed, there is a clear gap between left-wing and right-wing voters on this theme. Supporters of Jean-Luc Mélenchon's party and those of the Parti Socialiste put forward the social crisis more often, while French people close to the ecologist party tend to mention the environmental crisis (more than two thirds). On the other hand, among voters of right-wing and far-right parties, it is the identity crisis that comes in first place, whether among supporters of Les Républicains (39 percent), Marine Le Pen's party, but especially among supporters of Eric Zemmour's party, of which more than three-quarters consider the identity crisis to be the most crucial.
