French senatorial elections in Haute-Garonne and Aveyron

Overview

As the September 27 senatorial elections approach in France, political activity has intensified in the Haute-Garonne and Aveyron departments.

In Haute-Garonne, Pierre Lattard, the mayor of Pouze, has launched a candidacy under the banner ‘La force des territoires, la voix de la Haute-Garonne’. Lattard, representing the Republican Right, aims to defend local communes and territorial freedoms while maintaining independence from the current government majority. His campaign seeks to secure two seats for Les Républicains (LR) and challenges the existing alliance between right and center-right factions. This movement has caused internal political friction, resulting in the resignation of Christine Gennaro-Saint, the former president of LR in Haute-Garonne, who protested the lack of consultation and opposition to joining the government majority.

In Aveyron, incumbent senators Alain Marc and Jean-Claude Anglars are running together for re-election. They are facing five other candidates in a vote determined by fewer than 900 grand electors, including local councilors and mayors.
