Saturday evening September 17, the supporters of Emmanuel Macron attended a double ceremony. The burial of the Republic En Marche (LRM) and the baptism of their new party, Renaissance. In a symbolic place, the carrousel of the Louvre, under the pyramid where the head of state had celebrated his first election on the evening of May 7, 2017, the results of the members’ vote were without surprises: 87 % approved the new statutes , 96 % the values corpus and 83 % the new governance (the number of participants has not been communicated). At the head of this unique list, the president of the Renew group in the European Parliament, Stéphane Séjénéné, therefore becomes the new secretary general of the presidential party.

In a projected video, Emmanuel Macron wanted to express his “recognition” and his “gratitude” towards his “walkers” of the first hour. “We need today and tomorrow to continue the formidable political adventure of the overtaking started in 2016. (…) We have been able to reconcile so many women and men who until then did not work together, and it is united and Gathered that we are going to open a new chapter of the political life of our country, “he said, while calling on his party to avoid divisions:” Without unity, the extremes will prevail. “” If the progressive forces do not advance together, they will lose together, “said Stéphane Séviséné.
