With 43.53% of the votes cast, candidate LR finds her chair in front of Anne-Laurence Petel (LREM) with 32.12% of the votes and Marc Pena (union list on the left) with 24.34% of the votes.
“I am delighted with these first results, I would have liked to obtain more than 40%, but I am happy anyway”, said Maryse Joissains-Masini.
“What was most difficult in this campaign was the violence of the attacks. I was incredibly soiled. In a campaign we defend a program, my family was soiled, I think I will take it to court. There are things you can’t let go of. “, explains Maryse Joissains-Masini.

“Craftsmen facing a multinational“It is in these terms that Anne-Laurence Petel described the difference in power in this campaign between the two opposing camps.
The presidential candidate especially regrets the low turnout, saying that “less than 15,000 voters out of 90,000 registered this shows a disinterest which should make us think for the future of democracy“.
She also wonders about “the value of such a ballot“.
But above all, Anne-Laurence Petel regrets that EELV has not joined its teams, “we had a good ecological program, the alliance did not take place because of the names of the parties not because of the ideas, it is a pity“.
The candidate remains happy with the work accomplished by her teams, ” we have beautiful people with us and we will be able to play the pebble in Madame Joissains’ shoe“, concludes Anne-Laurence Petel.

For Marc Pena, candidate in third position in this triangle, the abstention is significant: “People no longer trust politics, it is foreign to them, they have other things to do than go to vote, this is where we are in this country. This is the policy pursued for a year and half of Mr. Macron who divided and dislocated this country “.
“The victory of Maryse Joissains is undoubtedly indisputable, but it must be read in the alder of this abstention and it is not the victory of the Aixois this evening. Many Aixois are extremely disappointed that Maryse Joissains continues its way, c is the victory of clientelism “, details the candidate from the left.
The participation rate is 33.79% for this second round, it was 35.58% in the first round. In 2014, in the second round, the participation rate in the second round was 52.61% in Aix-en-Provence.
