In France, foreign residents of European Union member states have the right to vote and stand for election in European and municipal elections, on the basis of their European citizenship. Shortly before the regional elections of June 2021, the source wanted to determine whether the French public supported granting suffrage to foreigners living in France in all local elections (i.e., regional and departmental elections in addition to municipal elections). While of French people were in favor of this measure, this proportion was much higher among voters of left-wing parties than among voters of the right.
