According to a survey conducted in January 2022, 27 percent of French youth were planning on not casting a vote during the first round of the 2022 presidential election simply because they did not know who to vote for. This lack of representation was also illustrated when 20 percent of the respondents quoted that a reason not to vote was the fact that they did not feel represented by any of the candidates. Moreover, 23 percent of those surveyed expressed a lack of interest in politics as a justification for their possible political absenteeism.
