Charles X
Answer
In the 1830 French legislative election, the French electorate overwhelmingly voted against the ultra-royalist government led by Prince Jules de Polignac. The election was a direct consequence of King Charles X's July Ordinances, which attempted to suppress political opposition and curb press freedom. The outcome was a victory for the liberal opposition, leading to the July Revolution of 1830 and the eventual abdication of King Charles X.
