Legislative branch: the presidential majority will not present competitors against the approximately twenty outgoing PS, LR or Lyot.

Macron’s camp is saving energy. The outgoing presidential majority should not nominate a candidate in the twenty or so constituencies held by elected officials of the right or left or from the centrist Lyot group, which is considered constructive, as we learned from concurring sources on Sunday, at the end of the prefectural filing deadline. .

According to the lists of nominated candidates published by three parties (Renaissance, Horizons, Modem) on Sunday evening, the majority will not represent a single one in the constituencies of the outgoing LR deputies Michelle Tabarot, Marie-Christine Dalloz, Virginie Duby-Muller, Emilie Bonnivard, Nicolas Faurissier and Julien Dives.

Agreements have also been negotiated at the local level. In Vert-de-Seine, the electoral department of Gabriel Attal, there will be no candidate in the constituency of the outgoing Modem MP Jean-Louis Bourlange, who is not running and the majority supports the LR of Jean-Didier Berger (LP). ). She will also not nominate a candidate against the MP of the Republic of Lithuania Philippe Juven.

On the left, Macroni did not nominate on Sunday evening a candidate against the PS, Jérôme Guedge, who is representing himself in Essonne without the consent of the New Popular Front. There is also no majority candidate in the constituencies of outgoing PS deputies Dominique Potier or Cécile Untermae.

Moreover, François Hollande, who pulled off a surprise by announcing his candidacy in Corrèze on Saturday, also does not have a majority candidate.

As for the independent Lyot group, which initiated a vote of no confidence in the government during the pension reform, the majority did not field candidates on Sunday evening in the constituencies of the outgoing deputies Bertrand Panchet, Charles de Courson, Benjamin Saint-Huile. , Christophe Negelen, Martine Froge and even Pierre Morel-a-L’Huissier.

Most of the outgoing MPs are candidates again

Although the dissolution announced last Sunday by Emmanuel Macron was taken by surprise, most of the outgoing deputies from Renaissance, Modem and Horizons are returning for a new mandate. As for the Renaissance, in Paris Gilles Le Gendre was not reinvested, the party gave preference to Jean Lossuc, councilor of the LR of Paris, elected in the 7th arrondissement, of which Rachida Dati is mayor. Le Gendre, who was president of the Macronist group in the Assembly from 2018 to 2020, is running without a label.

In Boulogne-Billancourt (Haute-Seine), Stephane Séjournet, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Secretary General of the Renaissance party, restores the constituency of Emmanuel Pellerin. In Aina, Damien Abad, former president of the LR group, re-elected under the macron label and short-lived minister in 2022 accused of attempted rape, is running without a label and will not have a majority candidate standing in front of him, according to the same sources.

24 of the 35 ministers in Attal’s government are candidates, starting with the prime minister in Hauts-de-Seine.
