Mayor of the Green Party refuses alliance with LFI
Bordeaux's incumbent mayor and green party leader Pierre Hurmic has firmly rejected any potential coalition or merger alliances, including those proposed by La France Insoumise (LFI), to secure his position ahead of a highly contested runoff election following the first-round results where he emerged as an early frontrunner but faces significant pressure from center-right dynamics.
