The candidate invested by the Nuts was able to measure, during a door-to-door, the popularity of Jean-Luc Mélenchon in the south of the Val-de-Marne prefecture. However, she will have to deal with four other candidates on the left and attacks on her parachuting.

Gathered in the Parc des Sarrazins, in Créteil, activists of the new popular, ecological and social union (clouds) are divided work. For this “giant” door-to-door, Saturday May 21, the objective is to crisscross the south of the city, which brings together several bars of buildings, to meet voters and then to make an “militant aperitif “And exchange with local residents. In this district where Jean-Luc Mélenchon came widely in the lead during the first round of the presidential election, the reception promises to be good. The activists are divided into several groups and distribute cards to forget any door, no building.
As often with rebellious France (LFI), things are methodical and ordered. Meticulous. Traits that ultimately correspond fairly well to Clémence watched, one of the new Mélenchonist faces, more and more highlighted by movement. The thirties, former secretary general of the LFI group at the Assembly, head of the presidential program of Jean-Luc Mélenchon, presents himself in the 2 e district of Val-de-Marne (Créteil-Sud, Choisy -Le-Roi, Orly), historically left. It was that, for around thirty years, of Laurent Cathala, stainless socialist mayor of Créteil, elected without discontinuing since 1977. But in 2017, Mr. Cathala does not stand for the legislative elections and it is a macronist, Jean-François Mbaye, who delights the seat. And who hopes to keep it this year.
Clémence watched and its teams are not completely serene. Even if there is no dissident socialist candidacy in the face of the “rebellious” invested by the cloud – there are despite all two others on the left, two extreme left and an animalist -, the candidate knows very that in Créteil things are always more complicated than it seems. She arrived in the constituency since “January” only and found housing in town recently. She is aware that her opponents will not fail to attack him on this parachuting, even if the “rebellious” repeat that the legislative election is a national ballot and that the question of local implantation is therefore secondary. “There is something to do, it is not a district for a macronist. It is a popular constituency,” she says. M watched also says that she will campaign on social themes, in particular “purchasing power, housing, school and transport, but also the environment, questions of pollution “.
