This is an almost unexpected rapprochement. In the first constituency, that of Avignon, Le Pontet and Morières-Lès-Avignon, the dissident candidate of the left, Philippe Pascal wants to advance hand in hand with Raphael Arnault, the candidate of the New Popular Front.
A left finally united?
This is an unexpected change of direction on the part of Philippe Pascal, supported by the local left. On Sunday evening, after his defeat in the first round, the dissident candidate called for a vote for Raphaël Arnault, but with much bitterness and the desire to not to meet him.
But today, Philippe Pascal, qualifies as an “advisor” of the candidate of the New Popular Front. He wants to accompany him during this campaign until Sunday evening for the second round but also in case of election. Philippe Pascal wants to bring him his knowledge of the field and highlights the urgency of action in the face of the potential arrival of the National Rally in power.
Philippe Pascal back on the field
It is therefore not impossible to see Philippe Pascal towing and campaigning for Raphaël Arnault in the coming days in the constituency. It remains to be seen how Philippe Pascal will succeed in convincing his 18% of voters to put a ballot in the ballot box for Raphaël Arnault, often criticized for his profile as a parachutist and anti-fascist activist.
