Overview
- Nadine Grelet-Certenais says she lodged the appeal on her lawyer’s advice and within the legal window.
- She alleges numerous irregularities in the municipal contest but has not detailed them in public statements.
- Her lawyer said French judges can annul a local election if false news or last‑minute announcements decisively sway the outcome.
- New mayor Romain Lemoigne of the RN rejected the challenge, called her a sore loser, and said his camp ran a fair race.
- The margin was 133 votes in a town long held by the Socialists, and the administrative tribunal will now review the complaint with no hearing date announced.
