Voting has ended in most of France in an election to decide whether Emmanuel Macron can continue governing with a majority in the National Assembly.
Turnout was expected to be historically low in the first of two rounds.
The president's main challenge comes from a left-wing alliance under Jean-Luc Mélenchon, who has set the unlikely target of becoming prime minister.
Mr Macron won a second term in April, but without an Assembly majority he will struggle to push through reforms.
Polling stations closed in most of France at 18:00 (16:00 GMT), but voting was continuing in the biggest cities of Paris, Marseille, Lyon and Toulouse for two more hours.
Turnout for the first round was the lowest for more than 20 years, with 39.42% of France's 48.7 million voters casting ballots by 17:00. The main pollsters said it was set to be the lowest level in modern French history at 47-47.5%.
