Le Pen and Melenchon Ahead in 2027 French Presidential Race, Poll Shows

The pollster says she would beat every tested rival in a runoff, while Polymarket prices her at 45.4% to win the presidency.

  • A new poll released Monday, November 9, 2026, by Toluna Harris Interactive shows Marine Le Pen leading France's 2027 first round with 34–36% of the vote. She also wins every runoff scenario tested.
  • Waning popularity for President Emmanuel Macron and a hollowed-out political center have left the nation vulnerable. These economic and political weaknesses have created a significant opening for hardline parties to surge.
  • Jean-Luc Melenchon trails in second place with 18–19% support in the November 3–5 survey of 2,101 registered voters. Le Pen would defeat him 68% to 32% in a hypothetical runoff, according to the findings.
  • As of 10:57 a.m. today, the prediction platform Polymarket priced Le Pen at 45.4% to win the presidency, with US$169 million traded on the platform.
  • The next polling wave, planned for November 17–19, will track momentum between Melenchon and potential rival Philippe. Analysts will watch to see if the current polling gap between the candidates widens or remains steady.
