A few hours after Jean Rottner’s surprise resignation, the regional majority has already paved the way for placing the current first vice president of the community in a favorite seat. The meeting on Tuesday evening initiated by Valérie Debord around the regional majority clarified the situation : « Franck Leroy will be our only candidate. We are all at his side to extend the action started around Jean Rottner “. To members of the majority, the interim president validated the collective momentum : « I’m ready ».
With the support of the 91 elected LRs, centrists and relatives, the majority should also be able to count on a contribution of votes from the members of “ Centrists and Territories “, announced its leader Christophe Choserot.
Given the low risk of internal candidates between now and the vote (probably between 10 and 15 January), therefore a green light for Franck Leroy, who will find Laurent Jacobelli on his way. The number 1 of the Grand Est National Rally has also already applied to succeed Jean Rottner.
