    De nombreux candidats se sont désistés, mais 47 troisièmes persistent à se maintenir dans des circonscriptions où le RN peut gagner (source @lemondefr). 28 au centre, 12 à droite, 7 à gauche. Il leur reste 5 heures pour retrouver le droit chemin. #legislatives2024

    Entre 285 et 315 triangulaires: le principal facteur déterminant la composition de l'AN sera le nombre de désistements. Le centre doit suivre le NFP et appeler ses candidats arrivés en 3e position à se désister. Le ni ni serait une faute morale impardonnable. #legislative2024
