The source does not establish an exact election day; the date has month precision. The franchise and territorial boundaries differed from present-day France; women were excluded from these national elections. Restricted historical franchise; representative selection and political groups are not equivalent to modern party-list elections. Only the compiled seat distribution is entered. Retrospective political groups are not national popular-vote results; no votes or shares are inferred. Dates refer to the electoral colleges; primary assemblies met in August. Figures retain the cited table’s historical groupings and territory; they should not be treated as a reconciled modern nationwide party dataset.
