French president Emmanuel Macron appears to have lost ground slightly in the latest opinion poll released by Elabe on Tuesday. With two and a half weeks to go until the election, he remains out in front ahead of far-right candidate Marine Le Pen and far-left leader Jean-Luc Mélenchon. The other rival candidates are struggling to get above ten percent.

Although he lost 3.5% of voting intentions since a poll carried out last week (by BFMTV, L'Express and SFR), incumbent President Macron is still ahead with 27.5% according to the latest opinion poll released by Elabe* on Tuesday.
