The next presidential election in France is currently scheduled to take place in April 2022, with a second round of voting in the following May, if no candidate wins a majority in the first round. However, it may be held earlier under exceptional circumstances such as the resignation or death of the President.
The President of France is elected using the two-round system; if no candidate gains a majority in the first round, a runoff will be held between the top-two candidates.
The incumbent president Emmanuel Macron is eligible to run for second term.
In 2012, Marine Le Pen stated that she intends to run for President in 2022.
