Fourth in the polls. Eric Zemmour would be credited between 10% and 14% of voting intentions. He is on the heels of Valérie Pécresse, herself neck and neck with Marine Le Pen. Emmanuel Macron is still the favorite even though he has not yet formalized his candidacy.
In the struggle with the National Rally. While several elected officials and figures from Marine Le Pen’s party have joined the former editorialist in recent weeks, an elected RN from Marseille, Sophie Grech has just brought her sponsorship. A position which did not fail to provoke the wrath of the president of the RN who decided to exclude him from his party. After Marion Maréchal, who recently confided that she “leaned” for Eric Zemmour, the battle between the two candidates seems to be only at its beginnings.
A counselor accused of rape. Eric Zemmour’s communications advisor, Olivier Ubéda, has been targeted since December 10 by a complaint for rape by an 18-year-old young man. Responsible for the image of the candidate, this 51-year-old former Sarkozist is accused by a former trainee with whom he would have worked when he joined the team of the far-right presidential candidate. He was to be heard by the police on Tuesday.
