The municipal of March are yet addressed with a little less concern than usual. "This may be a point of support for bounce, even if this erase not the presidential (1.9).

"The rare cities that we lose are less threatened by right by the PS", explains Dominique Grador, responsible for sector elections. In fact, the right threatens to Aubagne (read below). However, the match will be played left with a certain handicap for the FCP to Denain (North), but at lower risk to Vaulx-en-Velin (Rhône) and Vitry (Val-de-Marne). The PCF - PS confrontation culminated in Seine-Saint-Denis, with at least 6 primary, Pierrefitte (box read), La Courneuve, Bagnolet, Aubervilliers (read below), Saint-Denis and Tremblay-France. "They are not all for the benefit of the PS", recognizes François Hollande. But a few substantial catches or tilting of the General Council is looking the Socialists "would take a terrible symbolic dimension", dixit a Communist framework.
