TO HAVE

Good morning all ! What a pleasure to find you in a live to talk to you about something other than collective immunity and case fatality rate. For five months, 99.9% (IPSOS poll) of the lives opened on 20 Minutes spoke of this cursed coronavirus. Tonight is the first and probably the last appearance of this word. I'm going to make you live here the second round of municipal elections in Marseille and in the great Southeast.

This election is historic for Marseille: after a quarter of a century at the head of the town hall, Jean-Claude Gaudin (LR) is leaving power. The suspense is total, since to everyone's surprise, the candidate of the left Michèle Rubirola came out on top in the first round, before the then favorite, the candidate LR Martine Vassal and the senator RN Stéphane Ravier.

With my colleague Adrien Max, we will also give you the results in other major cities in the region, such as Aix-en-Provence, Arles or Avignon. Do not hesitate to ask us questions in the comments!
