SOT, Marine Le Pen, Rassemblement National President (French): "Hello, I'm happy to be here to support Eleonore and others candidates in this region. We hope that Eleonore will succeed to be part of the council here in the city of Nantes, and she will fight for all the residents. I'm also sure that the mayor won't be happy to see you in the city council because you will be the one that will remind her that the residents and residents of Nantes have the right for security. I know the security situation in Nantes is catastrophic." *ROUGH TRANSLATIONS*

SOT, Marine Le Pen, Rassemblement National President (French): "Our priority is clear: the fight against the lack of safety, and to remind the citizens in Nantes the lack of safety will be worse because of the illegal immigrants. There is a direct connection between illegal immigration and anarchism. If they want to allow this situation to continue, they could vote for Roland or any other candidate that has the same perspective. But if they want to change this situation, there is only one list that fights for this cause, which is the list of Eleanor Revel. This is what I came to say in this municipal election campaign. We have of course at the national level of desperation. We hope to gain, but beyond the cities which we can gain. We also have the objective to have hundreds of municipal councilors elected, who in each city will defend the interests of the inhabitants and who in each city will carry our political ideas, who will also carry the requirement which are those that the French express today." *ROUGH TRANSLATIONS*
