In the second round of France's 2026 municipal elections, the left held Paris, Lyon, and Marseille but lost historical strongholds like Brest and Clermont-Ferrand due to alliances with La France insoumise (LFI). PS secretary general Pierre Jouvet stated: «La France insoumise fait perdre». The left won in major cities without such alliances.
