Gérard Collomb leads the list of the presidential party for the second and obtains 23% of the voting intentions in the first round, according to a BVA poll published Wednesday by the magazine Mag2Lyon. He is ahead of the EELV candidate Bruno Bernard (20%) and David Kimelfeld (18%), outgoing LREM president of the metropolis who leads a dissident list.
