Far right wins historic first in French Senate election

Original: Far right scores historic victory in French Senate election

France's far right has achieved a historic victory in elections to the French Senate, a result with no precedent in the chamber's history. The win marks a significant breakthrough for the nationalist right in an institution long dominated by mainstream conservative and centre-left groups, and is being closely watched for what it signals about the party's growing national strength.

Why now: A far-right takeover of Senate seats is unprecedented in France and signals a major shift in the country's political landscape.
