For Marine Le Pen to gain access to the Elysée, “we must talk to the electorate” of Jean-Luc Mélenchon, who came third in the first round of the presidential election, said the mayor National Rally (RN) of Perpignan, Louis Aliot, this Monday on franceinfo. “You have to talk to him about purchasing power, about public services”he then clarified, referring in particular to “lack of doctors”.
If the candidate of La France insoumise called for “not to give a single voice to Marine Le Pen”it is however not “owner of his voices”judged Louis Aliot. “There is a logic in the votes, the French are not idiots, you cannot say for 8 months ‘Macron is the worst president, he is the president of money, of social damage, he broke the hospitals, the public services’ and then on the evening of the elections tell us that we must vote for Mr. Macron”he estimated. “Besides, he did not say ‘we must vote for Emmanuel Macron’resumed Louis Aliot. “You can also stay at home” he deduced, while addressing the voters of Jean-Luc Mélenchon. Another option, “you may not listen to it”.
Mélenchon calls for “not to give a single voice to Mrs. Le Pen” ➡️ “He does not own his votes”, for Louis Aliot. “You cannot say for months ‘Macron is the worst president’, then ‘you have to vote Mr. Macron’. You can stay at home.” pic.twitter.com/kvtkkHOe4p

Nor did it escape the mayor of Perpignan that “in the voting intentions of polling institutes, there is still a third [des électeurs de Jean-Luc Mélenchon] who would like, perhaps, to vote for Marine Le Pen in the second round”. In our Ipsos-Sopra Steria poll for franceinfo and Le Parisien / Today in France, published Sunday evening, 30% of those questioned who voted for Jean-Luc Mélenchon indeed intend to choose Marine Le Pen in the second round. . “All of this is to be taken with a grain of salt”he admitted, however.
Resume Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s measures such as the minimum wage at €1,400? ➡️ “I don’t think Jean-Luc Mélenchon’s electorate is focused on such specific questions,” says Louis Aliot.
