« United », the left would be in the second round against the RN according to a survey – Liberation
A left -wing candidate in the second round of the 2027 presidential election? It is possible, provided that it is carried, a priori, by a union of the left, with or without rebellious France. According to a Harris Interactive survey for the magazine « Regards » published this Wednesday, April 30, 26 %of voters would vote in its favor and it would qualify for the second round, 8 points behind a candidate of the National Rally (34 %) but 7 points in front of a representative of the current presidential camp (19 %).
If this union was done without rebellious France (LFI), this candidate of a hypothetical union of the smaller left could still reach 20 %. The rebellious candidate (the Institute does not quote, however, the name of Jean-Luc Mélenchon to his interviewees) would only be 8 %, very far from the scores obtained by the former socialist during his three presidential elections (11.1 % in 2012, 19.6 % in 2017 and 21.9 % in 2022). The candidate of the presidential camp would not be far (18 %) but it would, according to this survey carried out with 1,189 people, sufficient to pass the first round, which has not happened to the left since 2012.
On the other hand, if the Socialist Party and Public Place, The MEP MEP Raphaël Glucksmannpresent their own candidate (the latter has already made it clear that he was preparing), the voices of the left would go between a union with LFI (16 % of voting intentions) and the socialists and glucksmann (13 %). In this case, the second round would be played between the extreme right and the center right.
This survey comes, in any case, bringing water to the « unit » mill: eight people interviewed in ten consider themselves favorable to a common candidate for the whole left. On her X account, Marine Murdelier, recently renewed at the head of Ecologistsbrandishes the figure as proof of the strategy it intends to carry in the coming months: « Our electorate asks it, so what are we waiting for? », she challenges to other leftist training courses.
In his speech delivered last weekend At the end of his party’s congress in Pantinshe had sworn to stay « True to the promise of this summer », That of the constitution of the new Popular Front (NFP). « Together, we are the only rampart on the far right! »reacted, in the same vein, the former commune candidate of NFP for Matignon, Lucie Castets. We have two years left, and not a minute to lose. ” Another supporter of such a union of the left in the first round of the presidential election, Clémentine Autain, she, she, was downright brought to this Wednesday, April 30, April 30 :: « I will undoubtedly be, if we have a common approach, candidate to represent the whole of the left and the environmentalists »she said at the microphone from here Drôme Ardèche.
On the socialist side, there are no longer, however, on the rebellious to build this union. If he repeated this Wednesday morning on France Inter, to believe in « A gathering of Ruffin in Glucksmann » and welcomed the results of this survey proving, according to him, that « Left gathered (either) able to be in the second round and (…) to beat the extreme right »the first secretary of the PS, Olivier Faure, candidate for his renewal during the next Nancy congressjudge that « The rebellious people have excluded themselves » Union of the left in recent months. What make his rebellious counterpart react, Manuel Bompard. « »Olivier Faure pretends to plead the union, but he excommunicates the most important left force, reacted the national coordinator of LFI on X. It takes a left faithful to his convictions and sincere in his strategic choices to mobilize the people and to win. ” On the left too, the battle of figures began.
