Why It Matters

Font size

She officially obtained her ticket to take part in the “closed primary” of the socialist space which will take place in the fall. Ségolène Royal, who announced on Friday July 10 that she wanted to win the socialist ticket in the next presidential election, announced this Sunday that she had obtained the necessary sponsorship to participate.

“These are sponsorships […] which represent very different sensitivities within the Socialist Party”, affirmed on LCI the former minister, aged 72, beaten in the second round of the 2007 presidential election. “I did not know that it would come so quickly, it proves that I have kept a lot of friendships within the PS”, she adds.

What role does she intend to play in this campaign? “I want to restore order and dignity to the France house which has been very damaged in recent years,” she summarized, without revealing many proposals at this stage.

Six other candidates declared in the primary

Friday, traveling to the agricultural fair in Châlons-en-Champagne (Marne), she highlighted the fact that she had “nothing to prove”, “no political career to pursue”, unlike many contenders for the Élysée.
