France's left-wing parties win most seats in elections; lack of majority threatens turmoil

The left-wing coalition, New Popular Front, is projected to win the most seats in France's National Assembly, though not a majority. This unexpected result has led to jubilation on the left and disappointment on the far right. The National Rally party, which led in pre-vote polls, finished third, while Emmanuel Macron's alliance moved from third to second place. Prime Minister Gabriella Tell has offered her resignation, but President Macron may ask her to stay for political stability. The centrist and left-wing parties' strategy to unite against the far right seems successful. Despite the far right's historic seat gain, France faces a hung parliament, complicating governance.
