“Philippe Marini sent me a text message to say that he would vote for me in the second round,” assures Frédéric-Pierre Voscandidate RN well in the lead in the 5th district of Oise. The Parisian lawyer qualified for the constituency Compiègne-Crépy with 42.15% of the votes cast. His opponent will be socialist Bertrand Brassenscandidate of New Popular Front second with 22.03%.
This support from the mayor of Compiègne for the RN candidate would not be a surprise, to the extent that Philipe Marini was favorable to the gathering of the rights (LR-RN) wanted by Eric Ciotti. While waiting for the press release from the mayor of Compiègne, he says that he leaves the voters master of their choice, and does not call “in any case, to vote for Bertrand Brassens”. And remember that the RN candidate declared that Compiègne had a very effective mayor.
“I should see Pierre Vatin…”, Frédéric-Pierre Vos thinks out loud, before the week ahead. “I call on all of Pierre Vatin’s voters to rally their votes around my candidacy,” he says. “I am not an extremist but a convinced Gaullist. I am the candidate of the Republican right. There is no ambiguity about that. The government that Jordan Bardella will lead will be competent, which will change.”
Beaten, LR Pierre Vatin “sad and worried”
Pierre Vatin says he is sad, thanking the voters who voted for him. “Macron’s plan to put the RN in power is working at full capacity,” he notes. The voters voted for Mélenchon, not Bertrand Brassens. For my part, I was in “neither-Mélenchon nor-RN”.” He says he is worried: “It’s a shame for France. Having an RN government on the eve of the Olympic Games… We will see the change. Many people will refuse to have an RN majority in the National Assembly.”
Solid second with 22% of the votes, the socialist Bertrand Brassens does not hide his concern before the second round, seeing the results of the RN. He knows he will have to gather in the center.
Etienne Diot, the presidential majority candidate, fourth with 15.19% of the vote. “On a personal level,” he specifies, he says that he will vote for Bertrand Brassens: “Because he is in the republican arc as a socialist and because I know his republican values.”
“The 5th constituency is not immune to the wave of the RN and the New Popular Front,” he notes. The opposition representative from Compiègne is delighted to have won more votes than in the 2022 legislative elections. And above all: “I beat Pierre Vatin, Philippe Marini’s candidate, for the second time in the city of Compiègne.”
