European Union Parliamentary Election preliminary results 2024

Following the European Union's parliamentary elections of 2024, preliminary results show the center-right European People's Party Group remains the largest group in the EU parliament, gaining 14 seats compared to the outgoing parliament.

Elsewhere, the key takeaway was that right-wing and far-right groups made significant gains, at the expense of more left-wing and economically liberal parties. In addition to the seats gained by the ECR and ID groups, it should also be noted that non-inscrit far-right parties such as Germany's AfD and Hungary's Fidesz won 15 (+6) and 10 (no change) respectively, further strengthening the right-wing bloc of the parliament. It remains to be seen how the other 44 members align in the coming period, and how this will affect the balance of power in the parliament.
