Rachida Dati, LR candidate in the municipal elections in Paris, passes for the first time before the socialist Anne Hidalgo in the first round of this election with 25% of voting intentions (+5 points), against 23% (stable) for the mayor outgoing, according to an Odoxa poll published Wednesday.
As for the former minister, Agnès Buzyn, who has just replaced LREM leader Benjamin Grivaux in this campaign, forced to give up after the dissemination of intimate videos, she collects 17% of voting intentions. His predecessor was credited in January with 16% of the vote, said the Odoxa institute survey carried out for CGI and Le Figaro.
This study was carried out online between February 17 and 19 - the day after Ms. Buzyn's campaign began - with a sample of 809 people representative of the population of Paris aged 18 and over, registered on the electoral lists in the capital. The margin of error is between 1.5 and 3.5 points.
The list of EELVs led by David Belliard drops slightly by half a point to 14%.
That of dissident ex LREM Cédric Villani, who recently spoke with Ms. Buzyn, lost 3 points to 7%.
Mr. Villani is at the same level as the LFI list drawn by Danielle Simmonet (7%).
The list supported by Serge Federbusch's RN is credited with 4% of the vote.
In the second round, the list of Anne Hidalgo merged with that of David Belliard is however given winning, with 38% of the voting intentions (-1 point), against 32% for that of Rachida Dati.
That of Agnes Buzyn would get 20% of the votes in the second round (+ 1 point) and that of Cédric Villani 10% (-5 points).
