The 11th constituency of Val-de-Marne is a French legislative constituency in the Val-de-Marne département.

Description

The 11th constituency of Val-de-Marne lies in the north east of the department and is largely made up of the suburb of Villejuif.

Similarly to the neighbouring Val-de-Marne's 10th constituency the seat was held for many years by the French Communist Party, however it was captured by the Socialist Party (France) at the 2002 election. Also like Val-de-Marne's 10th constituency two left wing candidates qualified for the second round and so the second place Left Party candidate withdrew leaving Jean-Yves Le Bouillonnec without an opponent.
