On his personal Facebook page, Michel Chapuis welcomed, on Tuesday, the arrival in Puy-en-Velay of the candidate Les Républicains in the presidential election. The problem is that, in the process, the mayor (or his communication department) also published the same text on the page of the City of Le Puy.
The elected official from Ponote said he was “very happy to welcome Valérie Pécresse to our beautiful city of Ponote, and to show her some of our architectural treasures”. The mayor also cites the proposals unveiled by the candidate in favor of the installation of doctors in rural areas.

The first federal secretary of the PS de la Loire and regional councilor, Johann Cesa, also reacted on Twitter : “The official Facebook account of the town hall of Puy-en-Velay promotes the trip of Valérie Pécresse with Laurent Wauquiez. So public money would be used for electoral propaganda? If so, it’s illegal.”
