Jérôme Béglé, deputy editor-in-chief of Le Point, devotes his editorial this Tuesday, December 21 to Valérie Pécresse, who garnered votes from Emmanuel Macron for the presidential election of 2022.
Poll after poll, the candidacy of Valérie Pécresse becomes a real threat for Emmanuel Macron who simultaneously decreases in intention to vote. As long as the political offer of the presidential election was not complete, the outgoing president could rely on a base of center-left, center-right and right-wing voters.
Now that Valérie Pécresse is appointed, she attracts voters who saw Macron as a safe haven. Can the chair raise the bar? Is his attack of weakness temporary or lasting? Is the LR candidate the best equipped to beat the current head of state?
