“It impacts the legitimacy of the team that is elected”

The election to the Corrèze Chamber of Agriculture played in 140 votes of difference. Today, it is challenged by the CR before the administrative court of Limoges. For the FDSEA, victorious outing, the questioning linked to a stage in distribution by mail would not be based on any evidence. We explain to you.

The ballot was held by mail. During this vote, bulletins were returned to the recipient by post. The prefecture was able to correct 181 addresses. She then redated these bulletins to the Chamber of Agriculture so that they were returned. This is precisely this fact that is disputed. “I say that today, the prefecture had an extremely clear instruction of the circular for January 2025, that is to say, fifteen days before the election, which explained that these letters must be secure and kept in the prefecture”recalls Maître Jean-David Ciot, lawyer for rural coordination.

Could the bulletins be tampered with? This is the question that asked by coordination rural. Amélie Rebière, the CR candidate, beaten by only 140 votes in the election to the Chamber of Agriculture in January and February last, stands before the judges of the administrative court:

“The problem is there too: for six years, this team will be at the head of the Chamber of Agriculture which has a certain power on local agricultural policy”she worries.

Daniel Couderc, the current president of the FDSEA of the chamber of agriculture From Corrèze, is also present at the hearing.

“We do not have a certificate, we do not have a farmer whose vote would have been recorded and who attests not having voted, or not having received his voting equipment”, Ensures Maître Margaux Bachelard, FDSEA lawyer.

The public rapporteur asked for the rejection of request. The deliberation of the administrative court will be rendered in the next fifteen days.
