European Parliament election, 2009 (France)

European elections to elect 72 French MEPs will be held in mid-June 2009, on a Sunday.

Due to the entry of Romania and Bulgaria in the European Union in 2007, the number of seats allocated to France was revised from 78 seats to 72 seats, thus a loss of 6 seats. France now represents only 9,8% of all European MEPs compared to 12,5% in 2004 and 19,8% in 1979, following the first European election.

Participation in European elections in France has almost (one exception of increase from 1989 to 1994) always declined, falling from 60,7% participation in the 1979 election to 43,1% in the latest election in 2004.
