The Republicans (France)
The Republicans (; LR) is a centre-right, Gaullist and conservative political party in France.
The Centrists
It supports a greater role for the French Parliament and some in the party favour the introduction of mixed member proportional (MMP) or a German electoral system for parliamentary elections. Like many French centrist parties descended from the centrist Christian democratic ideals, it is strongly Europhile and supports increased European control over the economy, environment, immigration, energy and research.It is hard to pinpoint the geographic distribution of the NC's vote since most of its candidates run without UMP opposition. The party is strong institutionally in the Loir-et-Cher, where it holds two of the department's three seats and the presidency of the general council.
