Neither Jadot ni Rousseau, environmentally preferred ecologists preferred Marine Tondelier, Saturday, November 26, during the first decentralized round of the European Congress Ecologie-les Verts (EELV). The party members have placed in the lead the municipal councilor of Hénin-Beaumont (Pas-de-Calais), supported by the outgoing leadership, without completely giving it a absolute majority. It brings together 46.97 % of votes according to partial results (90 % of the regions stripped) published on Saturday evening, with a participation of around 50 % among the 11,000 inserts. Behind her, the texts supported by the two media figures of the party arrive: first lawyer Sophie Bussière, supported by Yannick Jadot, with 18.07 % of the vote; Then Lille municipal councilor Mélissa Camara, former spokesperson for Sandrine Rousseau, with 13.53 %.
The Rousseauïstes had allied with the historic left wing of the party, notably carried by Alain Coulombel. The latter had done almost 22 % at the last congress three years ago, but the Alliance did not give him dynamics. On the contrary, even if the scattering of the political offer on the left of the party also played. This score is a sign that “Rousseauïsme” has not broken into EELV. “It’s weak, disappointing in relation to what we could expect, reacted Alain Coulombel. There was an error of analysis to think that the primary message of Sandrine Rousseau was going to have such a dynamic effect at the Interior of EELV. She is attentive to many networks outside the party, but it is less understood inside. “
Besides, the jadotism was also not in this congress. Yannick Jadot announces this weekend in Sunday Journal The launch of his political club, to” get out of Twitter policy, which destroys democracy by reducing it to the slogan and invective “. But the fact is that the members did not massively accumulate its trend. Three years ago, it had gathered 26 %, much more than the 18 % on Saturday. 2>
“Pass on”
Marine Tondelier therefore savor the end of this duel which she considered destructive: “Perhaps from the outside, it was impression of being in the post-print confrontation between Jadot and Rousseau. Reality of the party, that is not that, the majority of members want to go on. “She plans to call each of the other heads of the list to compose” a united team “, with, she said,” people agree on the project that we must build together “.
