Aisne's 2nd constituency

The 2nd constituency of the Aisne is a French legislative constituency in the Aisne département.

Description

Aisne's 2nd constituency surrounds the city of Saint-Quentin in the north west of the department.

Historically the seat has swung between left and right. It has seen long periods of both Gaullist and Communist control.

At the 2012 elections former Minister of Social Affairs and Employment and UMP Chairman Xavier Bertrand held on to seat by only 222 votes.

More recently, the seat has been more firmly right, with the second round in both 2017 and 2022 being between the Republicans and National Front/National Rally.
