Part 4/7:
The National Rally party, led by Marine Le Pen, played a decisive role in the no-confidence vote, tipping the balance against Borne. However, this political maneuvering comes with its own set of risks. For Le Pen to broaden her base and secure a stronger foothold for future elections—specifically the presidential race—she must court traditionally conservative voters, such as retirees and the business community, who typically resist political volatility. Moreover, Le Pen is currently facing a court case that could jeopardize her ability to run for office by March.
