Recent polls from August and early September 2026 show the National Rally candidate—whether Marine Le Pen or Jordan Bardella—leading first-round voting intentions at 30–36 percent, far ahead of other contenders and positioning the party to advance to the runoff in April 2027. Le Pen declared her candidacy after an appeals court ruling cleared a prior legal barrier, while testing of Bardella sometimes yields even higher support. Édouard Philippe and Gabriel Attal compete for the center-right lane at roughly 14–20 percent combined, and Jean-Luc Mélenchon has gained ground on the left to around 15–17 percent in recent surveys, raising the possibility of a fragmented opposition. The first round is scheduled for April 18, 2027, with the runoff on May 2; ongoing candidate declarations, potential left primaries, and coalition dynamics among moderates remain key variables that could influence second-place qualification.
