The Prado-Plage School (8 e ), in the heart of the most cases of Marseille, welcomes three polling stations.

As if to give the example in a ballot where he dreads a strong abstention, Renaud Muserier arrived early, at the opening of the offices, in shirt and without tie, dialogue to the phone with his mother.
