Of the 550 candidates selected, “176 are from the Republicans, 159 from the National Rally [et] 215 of civil society”specified Reconquest!, calling for the “general mobilization of all right-wing and patriotic voters who refuse to entrust full powers to Emmanuel Macron and Jean-Luc Mélenchon”.
The party deplores not having received a response to Eric Zemmour’s proposal to present a right-wing coalition in the legislative elections: “Alas, neither the RN nor the LRs responded favorably to this outstretched hand and to our desire to unite for the love of France.” However, he confirms his commitment not to submit “Reconquest candidate! in the legislative elections against Eric Ciotti (LR), Nicolas Dupont-Aignan (DLF) and Marine Le Pen (RN)”.
