It’s official: Jordan Bardella is already a candidate for the presidency of the National Association. “I allow myself to ask for his confidence to continue the victorious path we have traveled behind Marine,” he wrote in a letter to RN activists on Wednesday, which was obtained by BFMTV.
An MEP since 2019, Jordan Bardella has served as interim president of the RN since September 2021 and the start of Marine Le Pen’s presidential campaign. In less than a year, he “had the responsibility of driving [le] movement in the whirlwind of these two great electoral battles” (legislative and presidential, editor’s note).*
“With all my energy, I have striven to take the helm with a sense of responsibility, face the tides with force, cross our regions and support our activists on the front lines,” says Jordan Bardella.
“Preside over our movement requires high vision and total availability”
Whoever intends to appear as the natural heir of Marine Le Pen is a candidate “so that RN continues to be that great coherent, popular, meritocratic force, rooted in the territories and where each one of you finds his place,” he launches – launches it to the media . leadership of the militants.
“Preside over our movement requires a high vision and total availability”, also believes Jordán Bardella.
An answer to Louis Aliot, who is running for mayor of Perpignan? “We can’t be in Paris two days a week and be content with Skype for the rest,” says Jordan Bardella’s entourage with BFMTV. However, who remembers his availability is a regional councilor in Île-de-France and a European deputy. But this cap might as well come in handy.
“The political party of tomorrow must be a force of European and international influence”, considers Jordan Bardella.
To be an official candidate, he must deposit by September 9 at least 76 signatures of members of the 400 national council, before having to convince the militants. Electronic voting will begin on September 30 before voting closes on November 3.
