ABSTRACT: From 6 to 9 June 2024, more than four-hundred-million voters from the 27 member states of the European Union had the opportunity to vote in the 2024 elections for the European Parliament (EP). Far-right parties won roughly a quarter of the vote, building on earlier successes in 2014 and 2019. The far right in the EP, however, remains institutionally divided, spread across three political groups. Despite holding a plurality of seats, the far right will not be able to mobilize as easily as the traditional "centrist" coalition. Thus, while it may become harder to strengthen European under the new Parliament, the EU will continue to muddle through.
