The mayor (LR) of Toulouse, Jean-Luc Moudenc, does not hide his satisfaction: “I voted for Valérie Pécresse”, he claims, after the victory of the president of the Île-de-France region in the primary of the right. “Of the two candidates, she was the one who was able to bring together our political family the most widely, but also to bring together the French most widely!”

We must win back our voters who left Macron. “Jean-Luc Moudenc

And the elected Toulouse list the qualities of the right-wing presidential candidate : “She has a force of conviction, she is a woman of combat, she did not lead only easy ones: the reform of the university, where she had to deal with hostile environments, the regional elections, which been two fights … She is a woman who is not afraid, who moves forward, with firmness, fidelity. She will be useful to give us new impetus. “

Jean-Luc Moudenc does not forget, however, the very good score of Eric Ciotti, at the head of the first head of this primary: “This must be taken into account. For thirty years, governments have failed to be firm on immigration, security. There has been a certain ineffectiveness. Eric Ciotti scored well because of that .”

Valérie Pécresse, closer ideologically to Emmanuel Macron, as is the Toulouse mayor, that does not scare Jean-Luc Moudenc: “Some of our voters have gone to Macron, we must win them back. We must diversify our subjects, talk about education, purchasing power, poverty … Valérie Pécresse must bring proposals to bring together, bring home lost voters, on both sides.

The elected Toulouse representative assures him, Valérie Pécresse will remain supportive, even in the event of a second round against Emmanuel Macron : “Normal, it’s a matter of consistency.”

She is a true right-wing candidate. “Laurence Arribagé

Opinion shared by Laurence Arribagé, deputy mayor of Toulouse, president of the Haut-Garonnaise federation of Republicans: “Valérie Pécresse heads the largest region in Europe, she is the best candidate my political family could have. She has clearly shown that she was not Macron-compatible. She is a true right-wing candidate, assumed , determined. There is no closeness between the two and she will not give him any gifts. “
