Affected by several cancers, the president of Bordeaux Métropole Alain Anziani submitted his resignation to the prefect on Monday March 4, 2024. Since then, the question of his succession arises.

Pierre Hurmic takes over as interim

First vice-president of the Metropolis, the mayor of Bordeaux Pierre Hurmic is currently acting. And this until March 15, deadline for voting to elect the new president.

Alain Anziani had designated Christine Bost, mayor of Eysines and vice-president of Bordeaux Métropole, to take his place.

But during a press conference about the Allées de Tourny, faced with questions from the press, Pierre Hurmic remained vague about his intentions. “I am not convinced that the debate of the day is that of succession,” he declared.

“Everyone can claim the position of president,” he added. My concern is that there is that a candidacy of the current majority to avoid primaries within the metropolitan majority. »

It is now done. This Friday, March 8, all the majority groups announced submit a joint application : that of Christine Bost. The Ecology and Solidarity, Communist as well as Socialist and related groups wish to affirm “their desire to continue the work initiated by the metropolitan executive. »

The mayor of Bordeaux met his counterpart in Eysines on Thursday March 7 and gave him his public support this Friday: “I believe that Christine Bost is today the most appropriate to continue the metropolitan project for the last two years of the mandate. »
