Shawinigan municipal councilor Jacinthe Campagna is seriously considering the idea of running for mayor in the November election.
-- has learned that a team led by former mayoral candidate Claude Villemure is currently organizing a mobilization and trying to garner support from the city’s most influential figures.
Jacinthe Campagna says she took advantage of the holiday season to reflect and discuss it with her children. She says she is now ready to take the next step.
We look at how things are going on the ground, what we call “testing the supports” and see what is emerging for the next year.
she mentions.
Jacinthe Campagna affirms that besides Claude Villemure, other people involved began to raise their hands to help her measure her support.
We still do not know whether or not the mayor of Shawinigan, Michel Angers, will seek a new mandate.
My decision will not be based solely on this aspect, however, I am not in opposition to Mr. Angers either, so there you go, we are doing things the right way. We are really at the stage of looking at what is happening on the ground.
she adds.
His official decision should be known next spring.
