The Republicans applied to the Council of State for summary proceedings, Monday June 24, to be invited to the RN-LREM-LFI debate on Tuesday June 25. To talk about it, Jean-Yves Dormagen, professor of Political Science and president of Cluster 17, was the guest of 11/13 info.

In view of the major debate scheduled for Tuesday June 25 which will pit Gabriel Attal, Jordan Bardella and Manuel Bompard against each other, the Republicans have contacted the Council of State in summary proceedings to be invited. Can participation in this debate change the situation before the first round of legislative elections, Sunday June 30? “It’s an election that’s going to be playing with extremely weak variations in votes (…) there is a campaign narrative issue, the question is whether the election is played out by three or four. When you are absent from the debate, it is an election that is played out in three ways”analyzes Jean-Yves Dormagen, professor of Political Science and president of Cluster 17.

According to the politician, the absence of LRs also demonstrates that the group “not part of the useful vote”. “Including from the point of view of voting logic, it does indeed have consequences (…) in fact, this election today is organized around three blocs”believes Jean-Yves Dormagen.
