https://www.lemonde.fr/results-lections/cies last weeks, within the Les Républicains Party (LR), it was common to start each analysis with this preamble: “Let’s first see that falls to field of honor and which is still standing. “Sunday June 12, the results of the first round of the legislative election made it possible to get a new idea of the state of the right on the national level after the presidential election, and health policy of his figures.
Two weight deputies did not succeed, on Sunday, to make those who predicted that the bad presidential score (4.78 %) could only lie in the legislative elections. The outgoing candidate of Yonne Guillaume Larrivé, elected since 2012, was thus eliminated in the first round, arriving in third position, behind the National Rally (RN) and the new Ecological and Social People’s Union (Nuts). “I leave today the National Assembly, with sadness, since this is the choice of the voters of our constituency, who placed the far left and the extreme right in mind,” he said in a short Text published on the social network Twitter.
In Vaucluse, it is Julien Aubert, outgoing deputy candidate for his re -election, who was the victim of the fragmentation of the political landscape in three blocks around the RN, the Nuts and the majority: the Elected totaled 17.17 % of the votes and arrived fourth, behind these three forces. “I am disappointed with this result, which has not reflected my investment for ten years in this constituency and in the Parliament,” wrote, on Facebook, the elected official, who nevertheless considers to have “learned a great lesson in life”.
He like other elected officials from Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur were in frontal opposition to the President of the Region, Renaud Muselier, and the mayor of Nice, Christian Estrosi. The two ex-Trenors of the right, both rallied to the presidential majority, had promised to oppose what remained of LR in their territory, accusing their old party of being in a drift that is too right-handed.
“field” and “sincerity”
long-standing enemy of Mr. Estrosi, and therefore a target of this campaign, Eric Ciotti, deputy for 1 re district of the Alpes-Maritimes, held the shock. It arrived first on Sunday, with 31.70 % of the vote. “From the bottom of my heart, thank you to the voters of the first district of the Alpes-Maritimes who placed me in mind during this first round. I call for general mobilization to win Nice and France,” wrote, on Twitter, the candidate, visibly delighted. If no one had really doubts about the outcome of the election in this constituency, many monitoring it very closely. In the general opinion, the outgoing deputy should play an important role in the future of the right -wing formation since his very good score at the Congress of designation of the candidate LR in the presidential election, in December 2021 – he was out of the first Tour.
