About this election
The electoral system
France elects its members of the European Parliament by closed-list proportional representation. From 2019 the country reverted to a single national constituency (replacing the eight regional constituencies used from 2004 to 2014), with seats allocated proportionally among lists that clear a 5% threshold. France was allocated 74 seats for the 2019–2024 term, rising to 79 once the United Kingdom completed its withdrawal from the EU, with the five additional seats filled after Brexit took effect in 2020.
