Rachida never dies, Proded a book released in 2013. Will the observation be verified next March during the battle to conquer Paris? “The Dati brand”, as some of the correct one call it, enters the race for the municipal elections with certain advantages, starting with its notoriety, but also real disabled, starting with its isolation. At the moment, the Republicans support him only with the lips and the Renaissance passes the time.
“A campaign, even in Paris, is towing at the exit of the subway, public meetings, questions of the voters in the school canteen. He needs militants and elected officials to do that. Frankly, at that time, we do not have them and will become a big problem,” generates an advisor to LR of Paris.
“Everything must always be in their conditions”
And the last days the deployment have nothing to reassure him. At this stage, it is not the municipal elections that are at the top of the correct agenda, but the duels that are coming in the second District of Paris in the coming weeks.
After the invalidation of the election of Jean Laussucq in the assembly, a former director of the Rachida Dati cabinet who was chosen last July to the legislative elections, the tenant of the Rue de Valois is determined to face Michel Barnier to become a deputy. And it is a pity if it was the former cousin minister who received the inauguration of the right and not she, who had not taken the trouble to officially apply. She knows better than anyone who is often betrayed by her family …
“The problem is that everything must always be in its conditions, in this case too. But politics cannot be that,” laments a deputy of LR.
The owner of Horizons, Édouard Philippe, who supports him as an advisor to Paris Pierre-Yves Bournazel to become mayor of Paris next March, formulated the same observation in a more direct way during a meeting.
“The meeting is not decreed. It is not ‘because I shout stronger than me, you will come with me.’ It is not the stock market or life, they are not threats.” The mayor of Le Havre explained Last June.
RETAILLE IN DISPINATION OPERATION
Message received five of five for the head of LR. Anxious to avoid a duel that could not be bad between Michel Barnier and Rachida Dati, Bruno Retilleau Cena with them the day before the National Investigation Commission of the Legislative in Paris.
The plan seems clearly established: in the old Locatee of Matignon the position of deputy, to the mayor of the seventh district of the City of Paris. Between pear and cheese, discussions move well. The Minister of Culture accepts on paper to withdraw under two conditions. The first: the law must mean very clearly that it supports it in the race for the municipal elections. Weakened for their correctional dismissal for “passive corruption” and “influence traffic”, Rachida Dati wants to be able to have the strike force of his party to finance his campaign. The president of the movement leads him to agree at this point.
But the second request is problematic: Rachida Dati wants to be able to choose the investments of the mayors of the district and all the candidates for the Paris Council. The aim of ensuring that everyone supports it in case of a victory and that it will not have to count on the internal opposition.
The calculation is understood: the right is very divided to the Paris Council and is in no less than four groups. It also aims to clean internal opponents and the list is provided. Geoffroy Boulard, mayor of the fourteenth district, which claims an internal primary, the mayor of the eighth district Jeanne D’E Hauteerre, Senator Lr Francis Szpiner who plans to appear against him in the municipal race, his colleague Catherine Dumas, who succeeded Rachida for the Paris Retille council.
“All these people are members of the Paris Federation, one of the most important in the number of elected activists and officials. We are not going to burn Rachida Dati. It’s Niet,” he deciphe an elected LR of Paris.
“We cannot have the butter, the money from the butter and the smile of the cremario. If she wants our support, he takes everyone in her list. We are not at an auction,” he still annoy one of his colleagues in the Senate.
Ready to lose the right?
Can all these beautiful long -term people agree or at least make their divergences during the field? “Everyone wants to win Paris and can drive a lot of effort,” he wants to believe that Senator LR Roger Karoutchi. Nothing is less safe, especially because Parisian law has the art of intestine wars that often lead to defeat, as during the Philippe Séguin episode against Jean Tibéri in 2001, who led to the victory of the socialist Bertrand Delanoë.
But the calendar could play the role of the justice of peace. The LRS have few chances of seeing the big cities fall into their bag with the exception of the capital. It is enough to say that a victory in Paris would be necessary to put in orbit the candidacy of Bruno Retailleau in the presidential elections. Enough to push Rachida Dati to put water in her wine?
“I’m afraid he will be ready to throw everything, even if that means making us lose if we don’t get behind him,” is an alarm of a Paris councilor.
Macronie foot on the brake
As for his followers in Renissance, they are still quite shy. On paper, the presidential party has supported Rachida Dati since Emmanuel Macron began directly to become Minister of Culture in January 2024. Actually, the observation is more nuanced. “We are a number to have explained to Gabriel Attal that we did not want our movement to support it in the first round,” said a member of the party’s political office.
In Macronie’s ranks, the Dati style does not happen. Several elected officials spontaneously cite their lively attacks against journalist Patrick Cohen in June. His prevention is also based on his chances of winning. An elabe survey, carried out for BFMTV and the Tribune on Sunday, the place certainly at the top of the voting intentions in the first round, between 28 and 34% of the votes according to the scenarios. If this study does not give any indication in the second round, the elected officials of the presidential camp notice that Rachida Dati does not have a voice reserve, except the RN voters.
“The problem is that either you love it or hate it. In the first round, it will be filled with its fans and in the second round, it will be anything except Dati,” worries a strategist of the Renaissance staff.
However, the fifties would need the support of Gabriel Attal’s troops. Since 2022, the law no longer has any LR deputy throughout the capital. Worse: before the invalidation of the election of the deputy near Rachida Dati, Jean Laussucq, twelve Parisian districts were left and only six for the Renaissance. “You only make arithmetic. A choice is not at all that,” Rachida Dati told relatives last May, who did not want to answer our questions.
But the Minister of Culture has an opportunity: the one that Macronie barely seeks an alternative candidate. He approached a while, Gabriel Attal is no longer tempted by the City Council of Paris, judging the calculation too risky before the Minister of Culture. And a plan B like Pierre-Yves Bournazel? The hypothesis of supporting so close to Edouard Philippe in the first round and then gathering Rachida Dati to the second part of the Macronie part. I would also have the merit of offering you a voice reserve to wait to overcome left. Rachida never dies. What if it were true?
