FranceHervé Morin, president of the Normandy region, has sent letters to several potential presidential candidates, including Edouard Philippe, Bruno Retailleau, Gabriel Attal, and David Lisnard, urging them to organize an open primary election before the end of the year. Morin warns that the large number of candidates from the right and center could lead to fragmentation in the first round and the elimination of some candidates in the second round. He emphasizes that such a primary should be part of an open, non-partisan democratic debate. In addition to the letter, Morin has provided a draft 'charter of fundamental principles' that candidates would need to agree to.
