At the beginning of October, a call to all elected officials in Vaucluse to unite against anti-Semitism, a motion tabled last Friday at the Department to set up a day of awareness of college students about sexual violence, or even an unfailing presence on the land alongside farmers. No doubt, the RN 84 plows wide and pushes its standardization to the extreme and becomes institutionalized.
It must be said that with the capture of the city of Orange in 1995, the FN had opened the way in a territory which officially has 4 far-right town halls (Orange, le Pontet, Morières and Camaret) to which can be added Bédarrides and Mazan, whose heads of list had been supported by the RN. Enough to make us forget the setback at Bollène, taken over by the centrist Anthony Zilio from Marie-Claude Bompard. For the next municipal elections, the party hopes to double its town halls and wants to invest candidates in all municipalities with more than 5,000 inhabitants.
During the last legislative elections, the RN sent 4 out of 5 deputies to the National Assembly. On the 3e constituency, Hervé de Lépinau was even re-elected in 1is tour and displays its ambitions for Carpentras, the second city of the department. In Avignon, bickering between the leader of the current opposition, Anne-Sophie Rigault, and the former MP Catherine Jouaen undermines, for the moment, this objective of conquest.
Especially since the RN has absolutely not digested in the central city, the large victory in the legislative elections of Raphaël Arnault (LFI-NFP), whose fight against the extreme right and fascism is its main driving force. At the same time, the No Pasaran collective or the far-right citizen observatory campaign and inform to recall the true face of the far right and its always tenuous links with identitarians or its anti-social votes.
