Rachel Keke and Stéphane Ravacley, two Nupes candidates with no political experience, create the surprise

Two candidates from the working classes are at the gates of the National Assembly, following the first round of the legislative elections, Sunday June 12. “People find themselves in me, they know that we are alike”, describes Rachel Keke, Nupes candidate in the 7th constituency of Val-de-Marne. This Franco-Ivorian mother works as a chambermaid. Ghousekeeper of the Ibis des Batignolles hotel in Paris, she came to light after 22 months of struggling to improve working conditions for maids. His opponent in his constituency, the former Minister of Sports Roxana Maracineanu, denounces the program of Jean-Luc Mélenchon and his project.

In Besançon (Doubs), candidate Nupes Stéphane Ravacley, who is also a baker, wants to convince voters. The craftsman had made himself known for having led a hunger strike in order to regularize his Guinean apprentice. With the war in Ukraine, he had organized a convoy of 24 trucks to bring donations to Ukrainians in their country.
