Macron's hometown voters look set to shun the president

The recent European elections saw Emmanuel Macron's party receiving less than 15% of the vote, indicating a decline in his popularity. In Amiens, Macron's hometown, the sentiment towards him is not very positive. The possibility of a far-right prime minister after the upcoming elections has led many people to consider voting for the National Rally (RN). The decision to call for a snap election came after Macron's party faced a significant defeat in the European elections. The people of Amiens, who have tried various political options in the past, are now open to the idea of giving the RN a chance. Macron's initial popularity, stemming from his roots in Amiens, has waned over the years, and people are expressing disappointment in his leadership. They feel that he has not fulfilled his promises and has resorted to manipulation. The economic challenges faced by individuals have also contributed to the shift in their political preferences, with some seeking new alternatives. The RN's emphasis on addressing the needs of working people has struck a chord with certain voters in Amiens.
