Overview

  • David Belliard formally kicked off his 2026 Paris mayoral bid at La Bellevilloise with around 400 Green Party supporters present.
  • Belliard called for a first-round alliance of all left-wing forces including La France Insoumise to counter Rachida Dati’s right-wing campaign.
  • A recent Elabe poll shows Rachida Dati leading the first round while Belliard tops left-wing contenders with 17 percent support.
  • Socialist primary candidates have ruled out any alliance with LFI, complicating efforts to form a united left front.
  • Prominent figures such as Greens leader Marine Tondelier and Communist senator Ian Brossat joined Belliard’s launch in a show of cross-party support.
