François-Xavier Priollaud

François-Xavier Priollaud is the incumbent center-right mayor of Louviers, a town in the Eure department of France. He recently won re-election in the 2026 municipal elections, defeating Socialist Member of Parliament Philippe Brun. The election was closely contested, with Priollaud securing 46.79% of the vote compared to Brun's 45.10%, a difference of only 110 votes. This victory is newsworthy because it represents a defeat for a sitting Socialist MP in his own political stronghold, highlighting the shifting political landscape and the challenges faced by the Socialist party in maintaining its traditional base. Priollaud's re-election signifies continued support for his center-right policies in Louviers.
