Aurore Bergé was elected president of the deputies of the Renaissance group in the first round of an internal vote.
The elected representative of Yvelines Aurore Bergé was elected president of the LREM deputies on Wednesday in the first round of an internal vote, against three other candidates, said the parliamentary group.
Aurore Bergé succeeds Christophe Castaner
Coming from LR, Aurore Bergé, 35, won by 88 votes against 29 for Guillaume Vuilletet, 25 for Rémy Rebeyrotte, and 11 for Stella Dupont. Former deputy president of the group, she succeeds Christophe Castaner, who failed at the polls on Sunday, against all odds. The LREM group, renamed Renaissance, has some 170 members.
A strict view of secularism
Very comfortable on television sets to carry the thrust against the rebellious or the RN, Aurore Bergé has imposed herself on the front line of the macronie since her arrival at the Assembly in 2017, after a course on the right, with Alain Juppé in particular. She defends a strict vision of secularism, close to that of the former Minister of Education Jean-Michel Blanquer or the former Prime Minister Manuel Valls.
Even if it means creating controversy in her camp, as in October 2019, when she said she was ready to vote on a bill by Eric Ciotti (LR) on the ban on the veil for school accompanying persons. At the Assembly, she was particularly involved in cultural issues, in particular public broadcasting. An environment that this daughter of actors knows well – her father is the French voice of Sylvester Stallone.
