2020 Allier municipal elections

 2014 15 March 2020 and 28 June 2020 2026 

The 2020 Allier municipal elections took place on 15 March 2020, with a second round of voting initially expected for 22 March 2020.

Results by number of mayors elected

In 2020, only 32 communes in Allier had a second round of elections, with the majority being decided with a single round absolute majority.[1]

Aside from Bourbon-l'Archambault, candidates on the left were not able to recover communes lost in the previous elections, such as in Bellerive-sur-Allier, Cosne-d'Allier, Cusset, Gannat, Varennes-sur-Allier, and Vendat. The left was consoled with a victory in Commentry. The right easily retained its position in the four largest communes of the department, despite a perilous four-way second round in Montluçon.
