Marine Le Pen held her big meeting between the two rounds on Thursday in Avignon in front of 4,000 people to mobilize her electoral base, nine days before the second round against Emmanuel Macron.

One thing is certain, its activists believe in it more than ever and are seduced by its program in favor of the working classes.

Marine Le Pen held Thursday in Avignon her first big meeting of the between-two rounds of the presidential election.

A speech in front of nearly 4,000 people where the candidate spoke about purchasing power, Europe or even youth.

So many themes that appealed to the activists present, as noted by Europe 1.

"Viva Marine"

Barely finished the speech, the quest is organized at the exit of the exhibition center of Avignon.

The activists give a few coins, or 5 or 10 euro notes, convinced by the one they call Marine.

"She's extraordinary, she's a great woman. Long live Marine", launches one of them.

“She is too beautiful, too strong and she speaks too well”, outbids another.

If his person almost amazes his voters, his program in favor of the working classes also seduces.

"What strikes me the most in his program is the purchasing power", explains an activist.

"A speech for all"

After two failures in 2012 and 2017, this time the public is convinced: victory is within reach.

"I find her more composed. We see that she has worked, that she has learned from her mistakes and I think it's now or never," says a voter before continuing.

"Today I really think that Emmanuel Macron is beatable. Marine has a people's speech and it's a speech for everyone."
