Only other federations have been accepted

Rainy, campaign happy It is in Cergy-Pontoise, in mud, rain and cold that Martine Aubry has yesterday made her first trip to campaign for regional elections. It was surrounded by many elected officials, and including, Jean-Paul Huchon, outgoing President of the Regional Council of Ile-de-France, the ex-leader of the PCF, Robert Hue (candidate on the list of the PS in the Val-), Claude Bartolone, President of the General Council of Seine-Saint-Denis, and Nathalie Perrin-Gilbert, National Secretary for housing. Head of a procession where each was wearing a helmet site, the first Secretary of the PS has visited the site for the rehabilitation of the neighbourhood of La Croix-Petit, in Cergy, alignment of yellow in the grey sky cranes being hedge of honor Board. Even if the aedile of Lille came to speak on the problems of housing and working-class neighborhoods, it is essentially the "cases" Georges Frêche was on everyone's lips.

"No legal problem".

A few hours of a national Office (the Executive's Party) which was held in the late afternoon and confirmed the establishment of a list of the PS "official" in Languedoc-Roussillon by Hélène Mandroux, the Mayor of Montpellier, and prior to joining Laurent Fabius, insulted by Georges Frêche, in his fief of Seine-Maritime, Elbeuf, where the first meeting of the campaign of the PS was planned in the eveningMartine Aubry has not evaded the issue. Questioned on possible exclusions of Socialist supporters of the bulky region incumbent, she replied: "We are not there." "I do not manage PS kicked metric and blackmail, I managed to shots of persuasion and belief," she continued. Georges Frêche has threatened to attack to justice the PS "for non-compliance with the voting of the activists", she observed that the national convention which is held mid-December in Tours "decided and disagreed Georges Frêche or the vote of the Federation of the Hérault. Only other federations have been accepted. "There is no legal problem", she continued, but "a problem for me and moral, it is essential".

If Georges Frêche, who multiply daily attacks, is a real concern, now the main concern of the Socialist leaders is whether it will be possible to convince Europe ecology troops to pull behind the banner of Hélène Mandroux. It is not won. "The idea would be to say: now there is a new socialist candidate and it's all behind, otherwise you are dividers, it is still a little unlikely as situation", Cécile Duflot on France Inter held yesterday.

Ready to discuss Green

The situation is however also locked steps as before. "Dialogue takes place on-site between Jean-Louis Roumégas (head of list of Europe ecology) and Hélène Mandroux", she said before adding: "it is always ready to discuss, it has never closed the door to the discussion.

This openness is perhaps related to the complexity created by the multiplication of regional political offer. Competed locally by a list of the independent ecologist journalist Patrice Drevet-led Alliance, Europe ecology has everything to fear from the list of Hélène Mandroux which, inevitably, draw on his reserve of voters. While they were credited by 14 in the last regional survey, the risk is possible that the "official" PS nor Europe ecology reach the score of 10, minimum to keep at the end of the first round.
