The right candidates also arrived in head Sunday in the first round of partial municipal Asnieres and Clichy.

partial municipal whose first round took place Sunday in the Hauts-de-Seine have a test for Nicolas Sarkozy, who held a support rally for Republican candidates in Puteaux and Asnieres, two of the three councils involved in the department, the last being Clichy-la-Garenne.

Puteaux, where the former head of state visited on June 11, the former mayor UMP Joëlle Ceccaldi-Raynaud AETE re-elected in the first round with 60.77% of votes. In 2014, the UMP candidate had been elected in the first round against Christophe Grébert, head of a modem-PS-EELV front (23.3%). Grébert go again to battle, without much hope, given the proliferation of lists “anti-Ceccaldi.” One of them was led by Marie-Sophie Mozziconacci a close to former Mayor Charles Ceccaldi-Raynaud. Joëlle father, he is at war for years with her daughter. In the municipal of last year, recording the various right candidate list had been refused on the grounds that running mate was already registered, unknowingly on a Navy list. The Council of State ruled that the double registration was a “maneuver” and had “distorted the election results.”

A list is claiming independent right has also tried to prevent the reelection Joëlle Ceccaldi-Raynaud. Led by Christophe and Sylvie Hautbourg Cancelloni, she was supported by the UDI mayor of Neuilly Jean-Christophe Fromantin, became, in 2012, MP for the former riding of Joëlle Ceccaldi-Raynaud who did not stand for.

For Clichy, right, prepares to drop the last socialist city of the department

Clichy, right, prepares to drop the last socialist city of the department. The list led by Rémi Muzeau topped, but a second round is needed. Mayor since 1985, the Socialist Gilles Catoire, re-elected in 2014, decided to hand over to Julian Perez, his former chief of staff, who took the head of a PS-PCF-PRG list.

His eternal rival Muzeau Rémi, who led a union list of the UDI, the Modem and Republicans, was defeated by 272 votes in the last election. With a major handicap: the attempted political comeback of Didier Schuller, reluctant hero of financing cases occult RPR in the Hauts-de-Seine. At 67, the former director of the housing office of 92, who had long embodied the opposition to Gilles Catoire, arrived third with a UDI list. But Didier Schuller had thought clever to add the UMP and Modem notices on its posters and newsletters, which had led to the cancellation of the results, none of the two teams that have agreed to support him.

At Asnieres, bastion of right conquered by the left in 2008 and then taken by the right in 2014, the former Mayor Manuel Aeschlimann, close to Nicolas Sarkozy, the Socialist beat Sébastien Pietrasanta, the head of a PS-EELV list . After the transformation of the UMP, at its congress on 30 May, this city is the president of the Republicans had chosen, June 6, to hold its first meeting.

The Board of State invalidated the election because of “pressures” to make voting UMP just outside several polling stations, without establishing the involvement of Manuel Aeschlimann, who had won a wire with 70 votes ahead Sébastien Pietrasanta. Also voted Sunday in Pontault-Combault, in Seine-et-Marne, and Thionville in Moselle.
