The National Rally candidate in the 2nd constituency of Jura has qualified for the second round of the legislative elections… even though his placement under guardianship makes him ineligible, we learned on Monday from concordant sources.
Tierry Mosca, 65, was placed under the guardianship of the Departmental Union of Family Associations (Udaf) of Jura in November 2023, a judicial source told AFP, confirming information published by the daily newspaper Le Progrès. A procedure targeting him for “hidden work” was also closed without further action at the beginning of June due to a “mentally impaired”it was added.
This did not prevent the RN candidate from finishing second in the first round of the legislative elections in the 2nd constituency of Jura on Sunday with 32.76% of the vote, behind the outgoing MP Marie-Christine Dalloz (38.59%) and ahead of the communist candidate Evelyne Ternant (24.75%). The latter announced her withdrawal in the second round to block the RN.
The documents provided at the time of filing applications do not allow the prefectures to know whether a person is under guardianship, the prefecture emphasizes. On the other hand, in the event of election, a birth certificate is then requested, where this mention may appear.
