Jordan Bardella, president of the National Rally (RN), and Franck Allisio, RN candidate for town hall, in Marseille, November 8, 2025.

Has the Marseille left misplaced the vote of its Jewish fellow residents? Five months earlier than the municipal elections of March 15 and 22, 2026, there’s little doubt in regards to the “entire right” shift of a big a part of a group estimated at almost 70,000 folks. Relations between the Israeli consultant our bodies and the Marseille Spring, a left-wing, environmentalist and citizen coalition which has dominated town since 2020, are tense.

“We remain a plural community, where institutions are diverse and do not represent everyone”desires to consider Evelyne Sitruk, president of the famend Edmond-Fleg cultural middle. “But, today, it is certain that the left has a repulsive effect for a majority of Marseille Jews”notes, disturbed, this former operating mate of the socialist Patrick Mennucci. “It’s hell to be left-wing in the community”confirms environmentalist regional advisor Christophe Madrolle (Union of Centrists and Environmentalists), whose grandfather was deported to Auschwitz (Poland).
