A pedestrian passes by electoral panels on a street in Paris on May 24, 2024, on which the posters of the 37 lists for the European Elections on June 9 will be affixed. French Prime Minister Gabriel Attal and far-right party leader Jordan Bardella locked horns late May 23, in a TV debate ahead of European elections, as the ruling party of President Emmanuel Macron seeks to narrow a yawning gap in polls. The far-right National Rally (RN) is currently far ahead in opinion polls for the June 9 elections in France, with Macron's Renaissance party in a battle for second place with the Socialists.
