Candidate for the presidential election, Eric Zemmour launched an appeal to David Lisnard, president of the Association of Mayors of France, for “a pool of signatures” of the mayors is constituted, so that each candidate can have the sponsorship required to be to present.
Eric Zemmour demanded Thursday on Europe 1 for a boost from the Association of Mayors of France and its president LR David Lisnard to collect the 500 sponsorships required to run for president. “I appeal to David Lisnard”, the president of the Association of Mayors of France, “a remarkable and democratic person”, underlined the candidate of the extreme right.
“I suggest that he ask the mayors to do a + pool + of signatures and to give the signatures to all the candidates who are at least, I do not know, at 5 or 8% in the polls, it is he who will decide. That the names (of the mayors) do not mean anything any more since it will be decided by all the mayors. I think that it would be a democratic measure and I do not speak only for myself “, he estimated.
Like his far-right rival, Marine Le Pen (RN), Eric Zemmour calls for the anonymity of mayors and challenges the 2016 law establishing the publication of the names of the candidates’ sponsors, an “iniquitous” text, a “democratic scandal “, resulting in” pressure “on elected officials, he said.
The candidate Reconquest! once again affirmed to be based on “300 promises” of sponsorship at this stage: “it is at the same time a lot because we did not have elected, but at the same time it is nothing since 500 are needed and everyone tells us that we need 600 or even 700 (promises) because people retract at the last moment “.
“Macron cynically instrumentalizes the Covid”
Eric Zemmour assured not “to overplay” the situation and that “nobody helps”, while rumors are rife on the temptation of LR to let elected right-wing sponsor, in order to divide the extreme right.
The sponsorship collection officially starts on January 30, until March 4, the deadline for their submission.
The former polemicist of Cnews and Figaro has also returned to the controversial remarks of Emmanuel Macron, on his “desire to piss off the unvaccinated”.
According to Eric Zemmour, “this is not a slippage”, but a “political coup” to “split”. “Emmanuel Macron is in politics” and “knew exactly what he was doing”. “He cynically instrumentalizes the Covid”, to “make it the subject of the presidential election” and “that we do not talk about its record” and “the identity of France”, he believes.
