CAPTION: 2022 French presidential election __________________________________________________________________ Between 8 and 23 April 2022 (first round) Two weeks after the first round (second round) Opinion polls __________________________________________________________________ Incumbent President Emmanuel Macron LREM Background The President of the French Republic is elected to a five-year term in a two-round election under Article 7 of the constitution: if no candidate secures an absolute majority of votes in the first round, a second round is held two weeks later between the two candidates who received the most votes.[1] Per the constitution, the first round of the presidential election must be held between 20 and 35 days before the transition of power at the end of the five-year term of the incumbent president. Because Emmanuel Macron took office on 14 May 2017, the transition of power is slated to take place on 13 May 2022, meaning that the first round of the presidential election will be held between 8 and 23 April 2022, with the second round held two weeks after the first.[2] To be listed on the first-round ballot, candidates must secure 500 signatures (often referred to as parrainages) from national or local elected officials from at least 30 different departments or overseas collectivities, with no more than a tenth of these signatories from any single department.[3] Potential candidates Lutte Ouvrière * Nathalie Arthaud, spokeswoman of Lutte Ouvrière[4] La France Insoumise * Jean-Luc Mélenchon, member of the National Assembly for Bouches-du-Rhône's 4th constituency since 2017 and candidate in the 2012 and 2017 presidential elections[5] * François Ruffin, member of the National Assembly for Somme's 1st constituency since 2017, journalist and documentary filmmaker[6][7] French Communist Party * Fabien Roussel, president of the French Communist Party since 2018[4] Génération.s * Benoît Hamon, regional councillor of Île-de-France since 2015, Minister of National Education, Higher Education and Research in 2014 and candidate in the 2017 presidential election with the Socialist Party[8] Socialist Party * Bernard Cazeneuve, Prime Minister of France from 2016 to 2017 and Minister of the Interior from 2014 to 2016[9] * Anne Hidalgo, Mayor of Paris since 2014[10] * Stéphane Le Foll, Mayor of Le Mans since 2018, member of the National Assembly for Sarthe's 4th constituency from 2017 to 2018 and 2012, Minister of Agriculture, Agrifood and Forestry from 2012 to 2017 and Government Spokesman from 2014 to 2017[11] * Najat Vallaud-Belkacem, Minister of National Education, Higher Education and Research from 2014 to 2017[11] In a document dated 17 October 2017, the Socialist Party (PS) noted that the financing of the 2022 presidential campaign was not assured despite "economic restructuring" but still planned to spend €12,000,000, the maximum permitted before the first round.
