Prime Minister Elisabeth Borne, who won her race for a legislative seat in the Calvados tonight, pledged to get to work starting Monday to reach out to potential partners to seek a "working majority" and ensure stability in France. She warned that the "unprecedented" situation of a fractured lower-house chamber represented "a risk for the country". 

"I have trust in all of us and our sense of responsibility," she said. "We want to continue to protect you and to ensure your security," she added, addressing voters after Macron's centre-right alliance lost the absolute majority the president had enjoyed throughout his first term in office.
