Jordan Bardella’s Cap d’Agde Visit Marks 2026 Municipal Election Turning Point
Jordan Bardella, the president of the National Rally (RN), is set to make a significant impact in the upcoming municipal elections. On Saturday, February 7, 2026, he will visit the weekly market in Cap d’Agde at 10:30 AM to kick off the campaign for his party.
Cap d’Agde: A Strategic Location for the RN
This visit marks a pivotal moment for the RN as Cap d’Agde is identified as a key target for the party. Bardella previously visited Agde in 2020 to support Jean-Louis Cousin during municipal elections. This time, however, Cousin supports another candidate, Fabienne Varesano, his partner and former deputy who has diverged from the RN.
A Boost for Aurélien Lopez-Liguori
For Aurélien Lopez-Liguori, this visit provides much-needed momentum. Critics have remarked that he was placed in this district from Sète, but Bardella’s endorsement is a timely boost to his campaign. This visit is expected to energize both Lopez-Liguori and the RN’s local efforts.
