Jean-Luc Mélenchon is the preferred candidate of French prisoners

Jean-Luc Mélenchon is the candidate for whom French inmates voted massively during the 2022 presidential election. This prison trend is part of an electorate marked by a strong presence in the suburbs, large cities, and among 18 to 24-year-olds. Jérôme Fourquet analyzed these sociological data in a publication for the Jean-Jaurès foundation.
