“I came because the left can win my canton, but for the regional ones, I have just voted white.
"Just out of the polling station of the Chamber of Commerce, on the Canebière, in Marseille, Rosy, a fifty-something who had brought his vote to Jean-Laurent Félizia in the first round, did not vote this Sunday for the Muselier list .
But even if weariness was felt among many left-wing voters, the calls launched by all the left-wing parties to vote Muselier "to block the far right" have borne fruit.
“I hesitated a lot, confides Francis, storekeeper, but in the end I voted Muselier, as for Estrosi in 2015. That our region is the only one to switch to RN, it would be shameful. But I failed to convince everyone around me. "" We discussed it all week with my wife and we did not come to an agreement. I vote Muselier because I think the Republican front is important. She, she is fed up ", explains, in front of another polling station in the city center, Jean-Pierre, school teacher:" We talked a lot about it with our networks of friends and it is very divided, each with his arguments: some vote on the right, others white and still others will abstain. "
“The last time, we had to vote for Estrosi, there is Muselier, for me that's enough”, confirms Jérôme, of “ecological sensitivity”.
“If this continues, we will vote Marine Le Pen to block Zemmour.
I would have preferred Felizia to maintain, we would have had at least one clear choice, but it is especially for the left to question the low participation and its scores.
