2008 Paris municipal election


Municipal elections were held in Paris on 9 and 16 March 2008, at the same time as other French municipal elections. The outgoing Mayor of Paris, Bertrand Delanoë, faced UMP candidate Françoise de Panafieu who was chosen to head his party's list in a primary election held in 2006. The MoDem MEP and François Bayrou supporter, Marielle de Sarnez, was the centrist candidate.
Control of the 20 arrondissements of the French capital was also to be decided in the elections. Of these, the PS-Greens-MRC controlled 12 and the UMP eight. 163 councillors were due to be elected in the 20 arrondissements. As a result of the election, Bertrand Delanoë was re-elected with a larger majority. The left controls 99 seats against for the right, two for other right-wing dissidents, and one MoDem.
