Philippe Vardon presented the “first 15 candidates” at the campaign headquarters of his list, who are intended to be the backbone of the future municipal majority and to occupy key positions around him.
Credited with 13% of voting intentions in the first round and largely defeated in the second—according to a recent IFOP poll—Philippe Vardon and his associates will instead be the main opponents of Christian Estrosi for the next term.
Like all other lists, Philippe Vardon in his choices favored a mix between “political leaders and elected officials, associative or professional leaders, and candidates from civil society without any prior political commitment.”
With their diverse backgrounds, experiences, and expertise, representing several generations, they come from all neighborhoods of the city.
