Presidential: Macron slightly increases his lead over his pursuers according to a poll


The president wins a point with 26% of voting intentions in this survey by the Elabe Institute for BFMTV, L’Express and SFR carried out online on Monday and Tuesday, with a sample of 1,488 people, including 1,370 registered on the electoral rolls. The margin of error is between 1.1 and 3.1 percentage points.

Mélenchon progresses on the left, Hidalgo digs

Her two pursuers, RN candidate Marine Le Pen and Valérie Pécresse (LR), both lose one point, to 15.5% and 15% respectively. Just behind them, the far-right polemicist Eric Zemmour wins, for his part, half a point at 13% of voting intentions.

On the left, the first classified is the Insoumis Jean-Luc Mélenchon who reaches 10% by gaining half a point, ahead of the ecologist Yannick Jadot (stable at 4.5%), the communist Fabien Roussel who is at 4 % (+1.5 points), Christiane Taubira who lost 2.5 points to 3.5% and the socialist Anne Hidalgo who lost half a point to 1.5%.

In the event of a second round as in 2017 between Emmanuel Macron and Marine Le Pen, the outgoing president would win by 56% against 44%, unchanged from the end of January. His victory would be narrower against Valérie Pécresse (54% against 46%), the gap narrowing by 1.5 points compared to the end of January. If Eric Zemmour reached the second round, he would be clearly beaten by Mr. Macron (64% against 36%).
