Definitely, nothing is simple in this National Assembly. It was after three hours of confusion, caused by a technical incident during the electronic vote in the hemicycle, that the deputies adopted – with 286 for and 238 votes against -, Tuesday, January 10, the bill renewable energies (ENR).
Fearing a tight ballot, the executive was able to count on the votes of deputies of the Socialist Party (PS) and elected officials of the Libertés, Independent, Overseas and Territories group (Liot) to pass this Bill At the Palais-Bourbon, which aims “to catch up on renewable energies”, underlined the Minister of Energy Transition, Agnès Pannier Runacher, at the end of the vote.
This welcomed a work of “unprecedented co-construction” with the deputies. “We can collectively be proud of this exercise of parliamentary democracy. This text is your text,” she praised for the rare elected officials still present. Taken by a sudden cough, however, she failed to finish her speaking. “We will have had twists and turns to the end” she concluded, under the laughter of the assistance.
Earlier in the afternoon, it was in a crowded hemicycle that the deputies were preparing to rule on this first bill of this legislature relating to the climate issue. But a breakdown of the electronic voting system caused an almost unprecedented incident to the National Assembly. Impossible for the services of the Palais-Bourbon to count all the voters, more numerous in sight than the displayed score.

But deputies dispute the ballot and indicate that they could not take part in the vote. A situation that pushes the deputy (national rally) of Haute-Saône, Emeric Salmon, to claim a vote by paper bulletin. The latter gets a success.
follow three hours of battle in the corridors of the Palais-Bourbon where the administrators imprint in the emergency 577 individual bulletins to be able to vote. In the “Casimir-Perier” room adjoining the hemicycle, a host of deputies assemble in the most total disorder, in search of the bulletin in their name. Some, stunned, are annoyed by this dysfunction and share their concern about the sincerity of this ballot. But at 9:30 p.m., it is with a certain relief that Yaël Braun-Pivet announces in the hemicycle the results of the vote: “We succeeded!”
