The 4th constituency of the Sarthe is a French legislative constituency in the Sarthe département.

In the 2007 legislative election, the constituency was won by François Fillon. Fillon was appointed Prime Minister, whereupon he automatically lost his seat; in France, a member of the executive cannot simultaneously be a member of the legislature. On 20 July his deputy candidate, Marc Joulaud, who had previously held the seat himself, automatically took Fillon's place in the Assembly.[http://www.assemblee-nationale.fr/13/tribun/fiches_id/266782.asp "Marc Joulaud"] on the website of the French National Assembly
