The main candidates.

  • Rachida Dati : Former french minister of justice. Former French minister of culture. Under criminal investigation for bribery and embezzlement.

  • Emmanuel Grégoire : The main candidate of the left.

  • Thierry Mariani : He praised Putin’s war on Ukraine. He visited Assad on a regular basis. He spends his holidays in Moscow and St Petersburg. If he is elected, you better start learning Russian.

  • Pierre-Yves Bournazel : He is a nice man. The issue is that most people never heard of him.

  • Sophia Chikirou : Says Grégoire isn’t really left, but she is part of the TRUE left™. Said she really admires Chinese political system. Under investigation for financial fraud.

  • Sarah Knafo : Actual fascist. Except this time, fascism is bubbly, cute and adorable 🥰. Campaigns like Zohran Mamdani. She was personally invited to Donald Trump’s inauguration party (and she went there).

This is an absolute shit show

No one has an edge and the result will be a surprise
