The first decisions linked to appeals following the last municipal elections are beginning to be known for the municipalities of Tarn-et-Garonne.
Three appeals before the Administrative Court (TA) of Toulouse were initiated following the municipal elections of March 15 and June 28. They concerned the municipalities of Beaumont-de-Lomagne, Montauban and Castelsarrasin.
Concerning Beaumont-de-Lomagne, where the outgoing mayor (PRG) Jean-Luc Deprince was reelected in the first round, despite the presence of three lists. His opponents, a bit bad losers, had pointed to supposed “irregularities” during the voting operations. Their arguments were swept away by room 1 of the Toulouse TA on September 29. The election of Jean-Luc Deprince and his friends to the “Your future, our ambition, let’s pursue together” list is confirmed.
“Sad story”

This is proba definitely not the last trick they are going to play on us. It is up to us and to you Beaumontois to remain vigilant and not to let go. The situation of the municipalities of Montauban and Castelsarrasin turns out to be different. “
First the campaign accounts
The prefecture and sub-prefecture towns are part of the municipalities with more than 9,000 inhabitants. These municipalities must first go through the campaign account verification box before any appeal is considered. According to our information, the national campaign accounts commission has not yet ruled. However, the administrative tribunal must wait for its conclusions before examining the appeals. We should therefore be fixed within a few weeks.
In Montauban, the candidate of the National Gathering, Thierry Viallon, eliminated in the first round filed an appeal in view of the presence on the list of Brigitte Barèges of Marie-Dominique Bagur, regional councilor (ex FN) domiciled … in Négrepelisse. Socialist Arnaud Hilion had filed the same type of appeal at the end of the second round, also pointing to the campaign document of Brigitte Barèges, before the second round. They will have to wait.
Just like André Angles (various right) unhappy opponent of Jean-Philippe Bésiers, outgoing mayor reelected in the second round. André Angles had pointed a
