Legislative elections were held in France on 17 and 24 November 1827. The Ultra-royalists loyal to Charles X of France lost the elections, with Villèle meeting the King on the 5th of December to offer their resignation.[1] [citation needed][citation needed][2] [citation needed]
195 seats one by those favourable to Villele govt
199 won by candidates of the left center and left (but how may are doctrinares)
Seats won by candidates of the counter opposition - 31
Unknown affiliaton - 5 (bit from appendix)[3]
"In sum, on a vote of confidence Villele seemingly could not win." p 161
(page 162 breaks it up further, but could be rolled up in existing sources without quotation)
- The ultra royalists of counter oppostion - or "pointus" as villele referred to them.
de Bertier de Sauvigny estimates 60 to 80, (de Bertier de Sauvigny, La Restauration, p. 392)
- some fo them made an alliance de convenance with the left opposition
p 163 stuff
- 2nd subfaction of the counter opposition - comte François Régis de La Bourdonnaye.
- Villele group, he says contemporary critics usually called them "ministerials".. To a man, they were royalists
- compared to those on left, they kept trying to expand and guard the royal prerogative. p 164 somethign about Jules de Polignac
-
ANd finally, for the leftists (kinda, leftists)
- large left center, loyal opp. Similar to right of center in many ways (rather than just being "the leftists" (so maybe shade of blue fits)) p165.
- With villele gone and the quite different martignac in his place, "the fence between left ad right center was a single strand affair".
- One even asked they be so termed "constitutional royalists"
- Meanwhile leftward fringe (eg 166)
They have a methodology for getting national vote shares, but eh. Trying to get a total would probably result in WP:SYNTH, checking Wikipedia:What SYNTH is not and Wikipedia:No original research#Synthesis of published material

editThe electoral system was a two round system. Only citizens paying taxes were eligible to vote.[citation needed]

Parties were less formalised, but alliances existed where newspapers would endorse sets of candidates that supported their ideology.
