2027 Presidential Election: Thirty Candidates Declared, Race Already Well Underway
Published
To date, thirty candidates have declared themselves for the 2027 presidential election in France. This figure shows that the campaign has already begun, even though the official list is not yet known. To be a candidate, one must file a application with the Constitutional Council and obtain a certain number of endorsements from elected officials.
Among those who have declared, several former Prime Ministers of Emmanuel Macron have already entered the race. Their presence gives this election an important place in the national political debate. Voters will therefore have to compare different backgrounds and programmes.
The final list of candidates will only be published at the end of the official procedure. Until then, other public figures may still announce their candidacy, and some may withdraw. The first round of the election is scheduled for spring 2027.
In short, the 2027 presidential election is already attracting a large number of candidacies. The coming months will show which candidates remain in the race and which platforms will be presented to the French people.
