Legislative in Seine-Saint-Denis: Virginie de Carvalho (DVG) withdraws, maximum pressure on Azzedine Taïbi (PCF)

There will be no return match on the left, this Sunday, in the 11th district of Seine-Saint-Denis. Clearly ahead of Clémentine Autain (LFI, 46.15%) in the 1st round of the legislative elections, the 1st deputy mayor (DVG) of Tremblay-en-France, Virginie de Carvalho (15.18%), announced this Monday in early evening his decision to withdraw his candidacy. The dissident candidate, who was strongly supported by the essential mayor (ex-PCF) of the town, François Asensi, made it official during a “citizen assembly” organized at the Espace Jean-Ferrat in Tremblay, in the presence of about sixty activists.
