Posters by Renaud Muselier during the campaign for the regional – Lionel Urman / SIPA
A speech that clarifies things. At the microphone of France Blue, this Wednesday morning, the LR president of the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region Renaud Muselier, candidate for his re-election for the next regional ones, confirmed the presence of LREM members on his list.
“I will submit my lists in two hours” and these lists will represent the current “regional majority”, in which “there are representatives of the presidential majority, (…) from Agir, Modem and LREM elected officials », Said Renaud Muselier.
Estrosi remains at the top of the list
A position which a priori rules out Sophie Cluzel, Secretary of State for the Disabled, leader of LREM for the regional elections of June 20 and 27: “There is no merger, there is no device agreement, I never spoke to Mr. Guerini [le délégué général de LREM] », He hammered.
In addition, Renaud Muselier specified that his head of the list for the regional in the Alpes-Maritimes would be Christian Estrosi, the mayor of Nice, to whom he had succeeded at the head of the region in 2017. Christian Estrosi announced his departure from the Republicans on May 6, regretting “the drift of a faction which seems to have taken the leadership of the party hostage”.
