An incident choice? The patron of the Socialist Party, Olivier Faure, says that it is “serene” this Monday, May 26 in BFMTV-RMC on “the organization of the ballot” for the PS Congress, while its re-election in 2023 had been marked by cheating accusations.
“I trust the sections, I trust activists and activists,” he said, speaking about the previous congress, organized in Marseille, “organized doubts.” And the deputy of Sena-Et-Marne to specify:
“Maybe there are places where people have cheated, I don’t know anything. But I observed that nobody had ever provided them and we always had people who were attacking their own party and who tried to question a vote they had lost.”
A first vote on Tuesday
A very clear Tackle for its internal opposition, transported by Nicolas Mayer-Rossignol. Defeated very little by Olivier Faure in Marseille in 2023 (51.09% of the votes against 48.91%, the editor’s note) The councilor of Rouen had played the results before finally becoming a “first delegate secretary” of the party in the fist and the rose.
The two men compete again this year, in the company of the leader of the socialist deputies Boris Vallaud, in the outsider’s position in front of their competitors.
The Congress knows its first prominent point on Tuesday with a vote of activists in the orientation texts carried by the various candidates. This stage will be followed by the appointment of the first secretary on June 5, then the formalization of these results during Congress in Nancy on June 13, 14 and 15.
In the PS, the vote is physical. If certain sections have a regulatory urn and a specific room, others have improvised the polls, sometimes shoe boxes, such as during the previous congress. However, all currents can send supervisors and “in the vast majority of cases, there is no problem,” said the AFP Corinne Naressiguin, who presides over the commission of the organization of Congress.
