Support for the LR candidate for the presidential election in a meeting in the center of the Channel this Tuesday, February 15. At the rostrum in the municipal hall of Agneaux, Senator LR Bruno Retailleau. The national speaker and adviser to Valérie Pécresse, made the trip supervised by many local and national elected officials: David Margueritethe president of Cotentin who is in the front line in the Pécresse campaign, the LR parliamentarians from La Manche, Philippe Bas and Philippe Gosselinsome departmental and regional advisers as well.
Dozens of activists present
In total around 200 people to support a candidate on the defensive and under fire from critics after her first big meeting on Sunday at the Zénith in Paris. Valérie Pécresse, criticized for her lack of naturalness and for her semantic shifts towards the far right, in particular the use of the term “great replacement”
So are Mancho activists worried? Did they bet on the wrong horse? They want to remain optimistic despite the doubts. ” I am convinced on the fund, less on the formExplain Valerie, but she is courageous to go and defend, to bring our ideas to life, to us activists.“. Jean-Marie, 69, from Saint-Lô is more dubious: I watched the meeting on Sunday, his speech makes me think of Cours Florent. No, you have to stay natural. We are a little worried. This is why we are mobilizing.”
For others, like Delphine and Christian, from Agon-Coutainville, their candidate suffers from being…a woman. ” She’s a woman, so she bothers“Delphine gets annoyed.
It’s not easy to get a woman elected in France

Boost the morale of the troops
If the old ones still want to remain faithful to their team, among the youngest, few in the room, we ask ourselves questions like Francois 18 years old, who will vote for the first time…if he votes. He’s not sure. “It’s not easy to see clearly. _Among all the candidates on the right, there is something to question and Pécresse is not the most convincing, especially lately_. But she is well surrounded as with Bruno Retailleau.“
Senator LR Bruno Retailleau, who came to support the candidate in the Channel and who tempers. “Iere are always ups and downs in a campaign, and Valérie Pécresse is the woman to beat. And then you have to know what you want: with Macron, we had great speeches for 5 years. a talkative presidency. Does a woman who dares or a president who glosses want ?
Do we want a man who constantly puts on a show or a woman who does the job? I prefer someone who is a doer.
