our quiz to find out which MEP you are closest to

Voters are called to vote on June 9 to designate the 81 French deputies who will sit in the European Parliament over the next five years. In total, 38 lists are candidates in France. And among them, 51 outgoing MEPs have decided to stand for a new mandate.

To help you see their results more clearly, and refine your political choice as the elections approach, we have compiled a series of questions on the most emblematic votes (migration and asylum pact, “farm to farm” agricultural strategy). the table”, green pact, war in Ukraine, etc.) of this last legislature.

What would your decision have been on these subjects and which MEP or political group would you be closest to? It’s up to you to vote to find out: “for” or “against” if you are sure, “I abstain” if you are hesitant. You even have the possibility to skip certain questions if they do not interest you.

Methodology

Votes and party affiliations were collected on the European Parliament website. To provide greater clarity, the vote regarding the inclusion of nuclear and fossil gas in “green technologies” was reversed. The original vote asked MPs to vote for or against rejecting the inclusion of technologies.

Your affinity score with an MP is calculated, by summing as follows:

  • +1 for each identical vote;
  • -1 if you decided the opposite of the MP;

  • 0 if you or the MP did not comment on the question or abstained.

The score thus obtained is normalized by the number of votes in which you and the MP took part (including abstention) to which we add 0.1 times the number of votes in which one or the other did not speak. This last addition makes it possible to disadvantage MPs who are regularly absent.

The score is finally reduced to between 0 and 100%.
