On the occasion of the legislative elections which are approaching,
20 Minutes
takes stock of the work carried out by local elected officials in the Alpes-Maritimes.
The nosdeputes.fr site, created by citizens, allows you to know the involvement of deputies in the hemicycle, without taking into account the work in the field, the meetings, nor the real absence or presence in the National Assembly since a statement does not exist.
The site still gives an idea of the weeks of activities and the bills brought by elected officials.
On Saturday, the departmental committee of the Les Républicains (LR) party in the Alpes-Maritimes met to designate the nominations it brought for the legislative elections, under the chairmanship of Eric Ciotti and Michèle Tabarot.
On June 12 and 19, nine deputies will be elected, out of 577 in total, in the department.
In 2017, six were elected under the LR label, three under La République en Marche (LREM).
Five years later, what projects have local representatives brought to the National Assembly?
Who was “good” or “bad” students?
Who represent themselves and who leave their place?
We take stock.
