The popularity rating of Emmanuel Macron drops 3 points three weeks before the municipal elections and that of Edouard Philippe is slightly down (-1), according to an Odoxa-CGI poll published on Tuesday.
Only one in three French people (33%) consider that Emmanuel Macron is "a good president" against 66% (+2) of a contrary opinion.
The popularity of the Head of State collapsed in particular with supporters of Europe Ecology The Greens (-22 points) compared to the previous month, according to this survey for La Presse Régionale, France Inter and L'Express.
With 35% of favorable opinions and almost two thirds of the people questioned of an opposite opinion (64%, +1), the Prime Minister also lost 16 points with those close to EELV and 8 with those of the PS.
The electoral campaign in Paris influences the rating of personalities: the candidate LR Rachida Dati (22%, +5) and that of LREM Agnès Buzyn (22%, +7) are up sharply, ahead of Anne Hidalgo who loses a point at 21%.
For almost six out of ten French respondents, however, the choice of Agnès Buzyn as head of the LREM list to replace Benjamin Griveaux is "a bad thing" for itself (59%) and for the Ministry of Health (57%) that she occupied until then.
Survey carried out online on February 19 and 20 among 1,005 people aged 18 and over, using the quota method. Margin of error from 1.4 to 3.1 points.
