Primary on the left: the three challenges facing Benoît Hamon
The Socialist candidate for the presidential election must address three urgent issues: rallying his camp, engaging with his opponents on the left, and convincing on his program.
Finally, he will need to persuade the Socialist Party voters who supported him during the primary to vote for him in the presidential election, as many of those encountered at polling stations during the first and second rounds were uncertain about backing him on April 23 due to his slim chances of qualifying for the second round of the presidential election.
