Without lifting the veil on the final decision, he has opened two possibilities: either a second round in June, a new cycle (1st and 2nd rounds) up to January 2021, to the exclusion of the fall. This is the first time that this hypothesis has been formulated by the executive and cited as a target date.

If Édouard Philippe cultivates the blur in the public, its intentions, however, are known. The prime minister is calling for a second round on June 28. "He is a candidate in le Havre, it was 43 % while it was locked in the yard of the pension. Today, it is worn by her crisis management. He wants to push his advantage," deciphers a government adviser. According to Le Point and Le Parisien, a political dinner in a small committee was held on Tuesday evening at the Elysée palace, during which the two heads of the executive have advocated for this scenario. "This would trigger a political initiative behind, taking note of the outcome of the vote, continues a other advisor. It is necessary to convince now all the world is to avoid polemics." Because several macronistes are against, including the chairman of the national Assembly Richard Ferrand. For its part, Stanislas Guerini, delegate general of The Republic in march, has requested clarification on the possibility for candidates to campaign until the 28th of June.

For the other parties, with the exception of Jean-Christophe Lagarde (UDI), Laurent Hénard (radical Movement) and Dupont-Aignan (Debout La France), who opposed the June 28, all the other participants were in favour, believing it was important clause of revoyure provided fifteen days before the vote. The elected officials stressed the importance of compliance with imperative rules of health.

The advice of the scientific Council

The chairman of the scientific council Jean-François Delfraissy was present at the beginning of the meeting, which lasted nearly two and a half hours. He recalled that the 1st tower had not had a significant impact on the circulation of the virus and allowed a downward slope of the epidemic, remaining very careful.

The party leaders have also stressed the economic consequences of the decision. On the way out, the chairman of the Republican Christian Jacob, has entrusted its concern with the hypothesis of a deferral distant.

These last few days, Emmanuel Macron was deemed more appropriate to refer to the entire city in the spring of 2021.

According to several officials, the Prime minister explained that he had a month and a half to campaign, and that it would be complicated with the return to school, while in October, the holding of such an election would be difficult with the budget debate in parliament.

Before the meeting, Republicans raised questions about the government's intentions, wondering if he was going to hold a vote in the Assembly next week. But for them, the government had to take its "responsibility" without going through the Parliament. "If they are afraid to govern, as they say," said Christian Jacob on LCI.

For his part, the chairman of the LR group at the Meeting, Damien Abad, confirmed that his group would not take part. "We have already voted and I'm not for the voting widget or voting stuttering. Then, we see the political maneuvering of opening up the umbrella to escape its responsibilities," he argued.

Finally, on Wednesday evening, Edward Philip never mentioned the hypothesis of a return to the mps to decide the burning question of the municipal.

Hello you are talking about the second round, OK, but not a word about the 1st round who was faking was because of the large number of person who are not present. In my commune, a person on 2 is not coming for fear of the virus and they were right because the mayor and some other people have been infected and have remained sick for 3 weeks... It was a huge error, see "criminal" to 1 tower and I would find it normal that you start everything in September . Thank you for reading and thank you for your reply
