Following the resignation of Didier Migaud, appointed head of the Court of Auditors by Nicolas Sarkozy on 23 February 2010, Battistel was chosen by the PS to be their candidate in the by-election for his successor. On 6 June 2010 she was elected in the second round of the by-election with 58.38% of the votes cast. She was re-elected on 17 June 2012[1] and in the 18 June 2017 elections;[2] in 2017, her constituency, the 4th of Isère, was the only one of this department not won by La République En Marche!

Political positions

[edit]

Battistel is particularly opposed to the opening to competition of hydroelectric concessions; in 2018, Contexte indicated that "she seems to have convinced many of her novice counterparts on the subject".[3]

In 2023, Battistel publicly endorsed the re-election of the Socialist Party's chairman Olivier Faure.[4]
