2022 presidential election: investigation into illegal financing of Valérie Pécresse's campaign dismissed. Current president of the Île-de-France regional council was the candidate of the Les Républicains party during the last presidential elections.
“I am happy to see my honor once again cleansed,” declared Wednesday at the end of the regional council the former right-wing candidate. A second investigation for breach of trust and concealment was opened, notably into the rental conditions of one of the two presidential campaign headquarters.
