French Presidential elections under the Third Republic involved the election of the President of France by the Chamber of Deputies and the Senate. The President was thus elected by indirect universal suffrage.
Since the Third Republic was a parliamentary system, the President had much fewer powers than under the current Fifth Republic, where the president is elected under universal suffrage. Besides, following the May 16, 1877 crisis, the President was prevented, by custom, from using his right to dissolve parliament. Thus, no president used it after the MacMahon dissolution of 1877.
