Original Note:
This is misleading. Candidates who placed third dropped out to not take away votes from those who could beat RN. Not splitting votes is a normal election tactic, not something nefarious. At the end of the day, RN candidates lost to opponents who received more votes. https://www.statista.com/chart/32550/announced-withdrawals-by-candidates-for-the-2024-french-parliamentary-election-by-political-affiliation/
