The 7th constituency of Moselle is a French legislative constituency in the Moselle département.
Description
Moselle's 7th constituency is formed around the town of Saint-Avold on the German border.
The domination of conservative candidates was broken in the 2012 elections after a National Front candidate secured a place in the second round thus splitting the conservative vote and allowing the election of the Socialist candidate.
