The Municipalities of Bastogne and Bertogne will carry out the first merger in Wallonia in 50 years. It will therefore be a special election for Bastognard and Bertognard citizens. They will have the choice between three lists. The “Burgmaster’s List” (Les Engagés opening) by Benoît Lutgen, “Ensemble Bastogne-Bertogne” (MR opening) by Jessica Mayon and “Respect” by Jean-Claude Crémer.
Benoît Lutgen, who has the mayor of Bertogne Jean-Marc Franco on his list, leaves with the favor of the forecasts to obtain a third mandate as mayor. He and his list hope to obtain a nice majority. Unless Jessica Mayon, whose list brings together the minorities of each Commune, succeeds in creating a surprise? She also dreams of obtaining a majority. The Respect list, for its part, hopes for at least two seats. Note that if the first two lists neutralize each other, Respect could have a key role to play.
In Bastogne, will the decision-makers of the merger be the masters of the new Commune at the end of the elections?
