A few weeks before the legislative elections, negotiations continue in all political parties.
On the side of the presidential majority, the 577 candidacies of the Republic in March would be almost validated and a man, well known, supervises each nomination, Emmanuel Macron.
Who will be the candidates and in which constituencies will they stand for the legislative elections on 12th and 19th June next?
On the side of the presidential majority, negotiations are underway.
Because the legislative elections are a priority for Emmanuel Macron.
In his camp, nothing is done without his agreement.
As proof, the President of the Republic brought together the strategists of his party and of the MoDem on Sunday evening at the Élysée during a dinner which ended very late at night.
A meal during which the Head of State sifted through the 577 constituencies.
Macronie gets organized
A large part of the nominations was validated by Emmanuel Macron.
“A first wave of nominations will be announced in the middle of the week”, announces an adviser.
Outgoing deputies who wish to represent themselves but also "new personalities from civil society".

But there are "still adjustments" especially with Horizons, the party of Édouard Philippe, warns another.
