Sandra Marsaud was elected Sunday deputy La République En Marche in the 2nd district of Charente, that of Cognac. She succeeds the socialist Marie-Lyne Reynaud who did not represent herself.
Sandra Marsaud is a 42-year-old civil servant who had already run unsuccessfully in the departmental elections with the support of the Socialist Party. She won 58.7% of the vote in the second round, against only 41.3% for her Republican opponent, Daniel Sauvaitre.
Aged 42, Sandrine Marsaud is an urban planner by training, specializing in issues of rural development, environment and housing, but she is currently an executive at the CPAM de la Charente.
Even if she never evolved under the golds of the Republic, Sandra Marsaud is not completely new to politics: elected in 2014 municipal councilor of the village of Saint-Même-les-Carrières, near Jarnac, she had also presented to the departmental elections of 2015 with a socialist pair, without being elected.
