“I am withdrawing my candidacy. Unfortunately, this is not the choice I would have made naturally, we are going to have a second round between an RN candidate, who will not have my vote, and an outgoing LFI MP, who is not the favourite.”
I call on Alma Dufour to be more and more on the side of the Republic, on the side of appeasement, on the side of civil peace, and less on the side of tension and radicalization.
The mayor of Caudebec-les-Elbeufs does not wish to give any voting instructions: “I will not vote for the National Rally. Voters will make their decision consciously.
