Overview
- Paris Greens approved the agreement by 73.7% and Socialists reported an 85% internal green light, clearing the way for a joint PS–EELV–PCF list with Place Publique also on board.
- Emmanuel Grégoire ruled out any deal with LFI at the second round, while the accord commits partners to pursue a single left list and excludes an alliance with Horizons candidate Pierre‑Yves Bournazel.
- Concessions to EELV include 36 eligible Council seats versus 28 currently and the lead slot for David Belliard in the 11th arrondissement, as communist leader Ian Brossat withdraws to join the slate.
- An Ipsos poll cited in coverage puts a united left at 32% in the first round versus 27% for Rachida Dati, with Pierre‑Yves Bournazel at 14% and LFI’s Sophia Chikirou at 13%.
- Fault lines persist over second‑round strategy and policy, with talk of a potential dissident bid by Socialist François Vauglin and disagreements such as the future of the Parc des Princes.
