Paris suburbs, known for their diversity and left-wing politics, are gearing up for upcoming elections amidst widespread voter apathy.

Activists in places like Clichy-sous-Bois are working hard to increase voter turnout, fearing a potential far-right surge led by Marine Le Pen’s National Rally.

This area, historically marked by high abstention rates, faces challenges in mobilizing voters despite efforts from local leaders and social media influencers.

The community, grappling with social issues and past unrest, reflects a mix of determination and disillusionment ahead of crucial legislative elections.
