Kitty Kat Posted April 29 Share Posted April 29 Hello everyone! I've wanted to make a thread for the politics of the European Parliament, as well as Europe at large for a while now. With the European Parliament elections a little over a month away, from 6-9 June 2024, now is an ideal time to open the thread for full news, discussion, and debate. All 720 seats of the European Parliament are up for election. The current make-up of the Parliament is: EPP - 187 seats S&D - 148 seats Renew - 97 seats Greens/EFA - 67 seats ID - 76 seats ECR - 62 seats The Left - 40 seats 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Europe Elects is a good website for projections and news and Wikipedia will explain the parties. https://europeelects.eu/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Politico.eu has some great resources including in-depth analyses and a huge section dedicated to the election. And as already mentioned by somebody else, Europe Elects provides seat projections and other interesting data and also collects polls for every single country.
