You have to know how to end a campaign.

That of Valérie Pécresse will end with a meeting on April 7 in Lyon, alongside the president of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes Laurent Wauquiez, popular with the LR base.

That of Marine Le Pen will also end with a meeting the same day in Perpignan, the largest city in France led by the RN.

Éric Zemmour decided to end in a different and more symbolic way.

On Thursday April 7, the Reconquest candidate will end his campaign with an "ascent" to the basilica of Vézelay (Yonne), a masterpiece of Romanesque and Gothic art, a major place of pilgrimage to Saint-Jacques-de-Saint-Jacques. -Compostela in the Middle Ages.

Éric Zemmour will go up the axis of the village towards the heritage site in the company of all the figures who joined him, from Marion Maréchal to Nicolas Bay via Guillaume Peltier, Philippe de Villiers or Jean-Frédéric Poisson.

“Our own Solutré”

The idea is to offer a postcard that is both civilizational and political on the sacrosanct “union of rights” praised by Éric Zemmour.

"The objective is to show that he is not alone in governing, unlike Marine Le Pen", deciphers a relative who recalls that at this stage of the campaign, the audiovisual media will favor images over sounds, because speaking time constraints.

“This final move illustrates both the vote of civilizational conviction that it carries and the vote for the future on the union of the rights”, explains a campaign strategist according to whom this ascent could become “our Solutré to us”.

Like the rock of Saône-et-Loire, also located in Burgundy, where François Mitterrand went annually, the "pilgrimage to Vézelay" could become an annual meeting of Reconquest.

A way of also remembering that Éric Zemmour and his aficionados intend to become part of the political landscape in the years to come.
