in Chateauroux, security at the heart of the vote National gathering in the legislative elections

In two constituencies in Indre, the RN won 40% of the votes in the first round of the legislative elections on Sunday.

The National Rally leads the first round of the legislative elections, Sunday June 30. In Indre in particular, the RN has more than 40% of the votes in the two constituencies of this rural department, particularly in that of Châteauroux.

Voters are highlighting the security aspect, after four murders in six weeks in the town, including that of Matisse, a 15-year-old teenager killed by a young Afghan of the same age at the end of April. Anthony, 35, had already voted RN for a few elections, but he is reassured in his choice: “I’m thinking of little Matisse. We realize that in our town, for a month and a half or even more, we have had major immigration problems. I think that the French realize all this and that they understand it. are saying very clearly today. I hear it in those around me. There are more and more people who say they are voting for the National Rally.

“The French are realizing”this is also what Serge Laplanche thinks when met at the RN HQ in Châteauroux. This activist since 1989 in the FN then in the RN, targets immigration: “When the left explains to us that immigration is an economic blessing for the country, there is evidence that… Because immigration is still the aggravating factor in all our other problems. A large part of the insecurity is attributable to uncontrolled immigration. I have a video of a battle between members of various communities which took place outside my house, it may shock more than one person.

At the heart of this vote, there is therefore security, linked to immigration. RN voters also raise economic issues. They are counting on better purchasing power, as promised by Jordan Bardella and Marine Le Pen. Anthony is a real estate advisor, he works, like his partner, but it is more and more difficult: “At the end of the month, there are no longer the extras that there were. Working together with a young child, today we count. On the purchasing power side, it is a sanction for the last seven years in power of the President of the Republic.” This vote for the extreme right in Châteauroux is also a strong protest against the president and his policies.
