The 2nd constituency of Essonne is a French legislative constituency in the Essonne département.
Description
The 2nd constituency of Essonne is the largest by area in department and covers its rural south and east portions.
The seat has consistently elected Gaullist candidates since its creation in 1967 with the sole exception of between 1981 and 1986. There has, however, been substantial boundary changes since then so the results are not strictly comparable. In both 1993 and 1997 the opposition to the mainstream conservative candidate in the second round came from the National Front rather than from the left.
