Stunned by the dissolution and left behind in the polls around 20% of voting intentions, the presidential majority is threatened with coming in third position in a number of constituencies behind the RN and the left. To avoid this, she decided not to present a candidate in around twenty constituencies held by elected officials from the right, the left or the independent Liot group, considered constructive.
This is the case on the right of outgoing LR deputies Michèle Tabarot, Marie-Christine Dalloz, Virginie Duby-Muller, Émilie Bonnivard, Nicolas Forissier, Philippe Juvin and Julien Dive.
On the left, the macronie does not present a candidate against the PS Jérôme Guedj, who is representing himself in Essonne outside the New Popular Front. François Hollande, who created a surprise by announcing his candidacy in Corrèze, also has no opponent from the majority.
After the announcement of the dissolution on June 9, the RN created a first earthquake in the campaign by allying itself with the president of the LR Éric Ciotti. If the latter was not followed by LR executives – with the exception of a deputy and the president of the Young Republicans movement – he indicated on Sunday evening that he had 62 candidates “from the gathering of the rights” supported by the RN. For its part, the anti-Ciotti LR branch announced that it had invested “nearly 400 candidates”.
