Elected for the first time in 2014, François Arizzi thus begins a new term which, due to the national electoral calendar and the 2027 presidential elections, will span a duration of seven years. He managed to convince a majority of voters against Magali Tropini, a teacher and school principal in the municipality, who led the "Bormes au cœur" list. The election was marked by a turnout of 66.51%, reflecting the interest of citizens in this local election. Abstention stood at 33.49%. In this context, François Arizzi's list won 63.48% of the votes cast, while Magali Tropini's list obtained 36.52%. This victory translates into a majority within the Conseil municipal. François Arizzi's team wins 24 of the 29 seats to be filled. The opposition will have 5 seats and confirmed its intention to actively participate in municipal life during the term. On the evening of his re-election, François Arizzi thanked the voters for their renewed trust: "They chose a project, an innovative project once again, a dynamic project for Bormes that will leave no one behind and will be for all Borméens, as we have always done for twelve years."
