Valérie Dittli, a member of the Vaud State Council, initially remained undecided regarding her candidacy for the 2027 elections, stating she would make a decision “le moment venu” (when the time comes). While her party, Le Centre, provided her with priority status to prevent internal rivals, her future mandate remained a subject of speculation.

Following a breakdown in dialogue with Le Centre over delegate assembly procedures, Dittli announced her departure from the party to found a new political group, the Mouvement libéral. This split coincided with allegations from the Lavaux-Oron section of Le Centre that Dittli attempted to transfer 22,000 Swiss francs from a party bank account. Dittli denied these claims, asserting the account was intended for transparent campaign contributions, while the party sought legal counsel regarding the matter.
