Voters in France are taking extraordinary measures to ensure their voices are heard in the upcoming legislative election. Following President Emmanuel Macron's decision to dissolve the National Assembly, a record number of 410,000 voters have requested to delegate their voting rights to trusted individuals. This surge in requests, which is 6½ times higher than in the previous legislative election, highlights the significance of the upcoming election.
The time constraints imposed by the unexpectedly early election date have led to a rush among voters to complete the necessary paperwork before the first round on June 30. Additionally, the election coincides with the beginning of France's summer vacation season, adding further urgency to the process.
