2020 French Senate election
Senatorial elections were held on September 27th, 2020, to pick 172 of the 348 seats in the Senate of the French Fifth Republic. The elections were a modest victory for the centre-right Républicains. The environmentalist EELV party entered the upper chamber, while President Macron's centrist LREM maintained their position, despite losses in municipal elections earlier in the year. The far-right NR kept their one seat, and the Corsican nationalists gained their first seat as well.
