Six years after a significant electoral victory in French municipal elections, where the Green party (Les Ecologistes) secured seven cities with over 100,000 inhabitants, including Lyon, Bordeaux, and Strasbourg, the party faces a challenging electoral landscape. Recent polls suggest a potential decline in their support for the upcoming municipal elections on March 15 and 22. This anticipated downturn is attributed to a broader decline in political ecology, a less favorable national context following weaker performances in the 2022 presidential and 2024 European elections, and local controversies that have tarnished the image of some Green mayors. Despite internal tensions and competition from other political forces like La France Insoumise (LFI), the party leadership expresses confidence in their solid local track records and a short, intense campaign period. The focus remains on retaining major cities, with particular concern for Lyon and Strasbourg, while also exploring opportunities in smaller towns.
