Macron's party wins parliamentary president role despite voter rebuke

French lawmakers reelected Yaël Braun-Pivet as president of the National Assembly, overcoming a political deadlock after July's parliamentary elections. Despite Macron's party losing seats, Braun-Pivet secured 220 votes out of 577. The leftwing coalition emerged as the largest group in the National Assembly. The president's role is crucial for setting legislative agendas and overseeing key appointments. Macron's prime minister resigned, awaiting a new government.
