Presidential candidates are currently in the midst of a sponsorship race. The case of Anne Hidalgo is complicated since she is at the bottom in the polls with less than 5% of voting intention and the irruption of Christiane Taubira in the race has added “disorder“. The former Keeper of the Seals, victorious in the popular primary on January 30, failed to open real discussions with the other figures of the left for the election.

His team decided to join Anne Hidalgo. “Today, deprived of being able to vote for the one who carried our hopes, we choose to support the candidacy of Anne Hidalgo. In our opinion, his project is the most serious. He is also the one who comes closest to that of Arnaud Montebourg“, reports The world.
