This Sunday, July 7, voters in Lot-et-Garonne will go to the polls for the second time to elect their deputies. In the three constituencies, six candidates are still in the running.
In Lot-et-Garonne, 70.05% of voters went to the polls on Sunday, June 30. In the department, the National Rally, already elected in two constituencies, came out on top everywhere. It totaled 44.42% of the vote. In second place, the New Popular Front, still in the running in one constituency, reached 23.73%. Symbolizing a lack of love with the presidential group, Ensemble only reached 17.42% and kept only one candidate in the second round.
If the submission of lists ends this Tuesday, July 2 at 6 p.m., here is what is emerging in the department for this second round.
The outgoing MP, Michel Lauzzana is still in the race with 28.41% of the vote. For this second round of the legislative elections, the Ensemble candidate will face Sébastien Delbosq, who emerged victorious last Sunday with 43.11% of the vote.
In this constituency, as in many others, a three-way race was formed after the first round. In third place, candidate Paul Vo Van finally withdrew and called for a vote for the outgoing MP, to block the National Rally.
