The deadline for registering candidates for the second round was set by decree for June 21 at 6 p.m. “The prefecture sent an email on Thursday to make an appointment, except that it fell into spam”, says Vincent Cool. Her running mate would not have received this email at all.
“We saw it, it was well written on June 21. We said to ourselves that they were going to call us to be able to make an appointment. We no longer remembered that it was June 21, we said. was surprised. (…) I was sure it was Tuesday. “, adds Vincent Cool. “I blame myself, of course. But we’ve been made clear, that’s the rule.”
