Jordan Bardella votes for the first round of parliamentary elections - Garches

French far-right Rassemblement National (RN) party President and lead MEP Jordan Bardella arrives at a polling station to vote during the first round of parliamentary elections in Garches, suburb of Paris, on June 30, 2024. A divided France is voting in high-stakes parliamentary elections that could see the anti-immigrant and eurosceptic party of Le Pen sweep to power in a historic first. The candidates formally ended their frantic campaigns at midnight June 28, with political activity banned until the first round of voting. Photo by Raphael Lafargue/ABACAPRESS.COM
