2007

[edit]

In 2007, Taubira was elected for a fourth and final term versus Rémy-Louis Budoc (UMP), who she also faced in 2002. During the 2007 contest, which took place just weeks afterNicolas Sarkozy'selection as president, Taubira stated that she was "approached" by Sarkozy's associates about the possibility of joining thegovernment of François Fillon. Budoc pushed back against the claim, arguing that "[Taubira] criticized Nicolas Sarkozy too unfairly to deserve to enter this government".^[5]
