PARIS (Reuters) - Six out of 10 French people do not want French President Emmanuel Macron's party to win a majority in parliament elections in June, said an Elabe opinion poll on Wednesday.

The poll shows that 61% of French voters would prefer that parliament elections on June 12 and June 19 result in a majority of members of parliament in opposition to Macron. That percentage rises to 69% among working-class voters and close to 90% among far-right and far-left voters.
