The 2nd constituency of Yvelines is a French legislative constituency in the Yvelines département.

Description

The 2nd constituency of Yvelines includes part of Versailles as well as the areas to its immediate south and west.

Like much of eastern Yvelines, the seat is dominated by the wealthy suburbs to the west of Paris. The seat is staunchly conservative, having voted for the Republicans, Union for a Popular Movement, and its predecessor Rally for the Republic at every election since 1988. Its deputy from 2002 to 2016, Valérie Pécresse, served as a minister during the premiership of François Fillon.
