Overview
- Fielded November 13–21 among 2,000 adults online using the quota method, the Ifop‑JDD barometer places Emmanuel Macron at 16% satisfied and a record 56% “very dissatisfied,” the lowest level of his presidency.
- Sébastien Lecornu falls four points to 34% satisfied, marking his first clear hit from the presidency’s unpopularity even as only 25% say they are “very dissatisfied” with him.
- Pollster Frédéric Dabi describes a contagion effect across the executive, noting that even the government’s more moderating figure is now being pulled into the broader backlash.
- Respondents cite perceived detachment, tax and deficit concerns, security frustrations including narcotrafficking in Marseille, and unresolved anger over the earlier dissolution as key drivers.
- The findings arrive as Lecornu seeks a delicate budget compromise, raising doubts about the executive’s capacity to rally support in the current climate.
