Toulouse: the war of leaflets on the Cristal market for the presidential campaign
On the Cristal market, this Saturday, March 5, activists from the Socialist Party and the Communist Party, who have been towing for a few weeks, saw LREM (La République en Marche) activists for the first time.
They entered the arena under gray skies. Several teams of Emmanuel Macron activists, who recently announced his candidacy for re-election in a letter to the French, were treated this Saturday March 5 at the Cristal market in Jeanne-d’Arc.
“It’s the first time we’ve seen them. Normally over-treaty at the heart of the market. But there, the competition is fierce. We proposed at the exit of the metro”, explain the militants of the French Communist Party. New to this battlefield, Modem and LREM activists claim not to be new to the presidential battle.” We have been campaigning for Emmanuel Macron for more than two months, defends Marine Tixier, youth referent Democrats. We are on the ground with the French”. They distributed the economic, social and global balance sheet of the five-year term in the absence of the program, which should soon be unveiled. “But Emmanuel Macron does not present his balance sheet as a campaign argument. In his letter to the French, our candidate is transparent. He has points on which he will improve. This is the new challenge, “says Marine Tixier.
“Our presence is more legitimate”, launch the communist militants
According to her, in the market, the president receives a good reception. The activists of Anne Hidalgo, PS candidate, who have been towing for more than two months there, are distributing the socialist’s program for the first time. Despite the low voting intentions that the polls lend to their candidate, there is “a big glimmer of hope”, according to Anne-Sophie de Surgy, delegate of the constituency.
A few meters away, the PCF also believes in it. Communist activists, present on the market “even when there are no elections”, put a lot of tow in this place where “their presence is more legitimate”.
