Loire-Atlantique's 3rd constituency

The 3rd constituency of Loire-Atlantique is a French legislative constituency in the Loire-Atlantique département. Like the other 576 French constituencies, it elects one MP using the two-round system, with a run-off if no candidate receives over 50% of the vote in the first round.

Description
Its representative from 1988 to 2016 was Jean-Marc Ayrault, the former Prime Minister of France (2012–2014). His return to the government prompted a by-election which was won by Karine Daniel. It includes part of the city of Nantes.
