Contents

Description

Nord's 20th constituency occupies the areas between the city of Valenciennes and the border with Belgium.

The constituency has historically been a stronghold of the French Communist Party (PCF), and was held by veteran communist Alain Bocquet from 1988 to 2017. It was held by PCF National Secretary and 2022 presidential election candidate Fabien Roussel, until he was defeated by the National Rally candidate Guillaume Florquin in the 2024 French elections, marking the first time the PCF will not represent the constituency since its creation.
