French MP of the far-right Rassemblement National (RN) group Edwige Diaz looks on during a visit of her party's 2027 French presidential candidate in Le Porge, south-western France, on September 17, 2026, months after a wildfire destroyed some 183 homes in the town as part of a broader blaze that swept through the Gironde department this summer. The National Rally is making Gironde, where Marine Le Pen is visiting on September 17, 2026, a key step in its bid to gain a foothold in the Senate. In 2020, the Green candidate was elected there, a first in the region, far ahead of the National Rally’s candidate, Edwige Diaz. Six years later, the vote on September 27 is looking bleak for the Greens, who have lost grand electors, unlike the far right. (Photo by Philippe LOPEZ / AFP)
