Marine Le Pen differs most from the other ten candidates on immigration, with an average gap of 1.87 points. The candidate strongly agrees with a referendum on immigration, with abolishing birthright citizenship and with social housing and jobs going to French citizens first, agrees with suspending family reunification, and strongly disagrees with giving legal status to undocumented workers who have a job and with undocumented migrants keeping access to State medical aid (AME). Together with Éric Zemmour, she is the only one who agrees that social housing and jobs should go to French citizens first.
Next come education (1.33 points) and “Energy, climate and farming” (1.32 points). On education, she and Nicolas Dupont-Aignan are the only ones who strongly agree with compulsory uniform in primary and lower secondary school; she takes an intermediate position on banning social media for children under 15 and disagrees, in a position estimated for lack of a source, with scrapping Parcoursup. On energy, she strongly agrees with building new nuclear reactors and with scrapping low-emission zones (ZFE), strongly disagrees with continuing to develop wind power and disagrees with banning glyphosate and neonicotinoids.
Her smallest gaps, tied at 0.75 points, are on the economy and health. On the economy, she agrees with bringing back a wealth tax and with cutting public spending first, takes an intermediate position on reducing the number of public servants and disagrees with a minimum tax on fortunes worth more than 100 million euros. On health, she agrees with greatly increasing funding for public hospitals and disagrees with requiring doctors to set up practice where they are lacking.
Of her 46 positions, 23 are in favour, 4 intermediate and 19 against; 19 are at the extremes (1 or 5) and 4, for lack of a source, are estimated. Her highest match is with Nicolas Dupont-Aignan (86%), her lowest with Marine Tondelier (44%).
