Émile Zuccarelli
Émile Zuccarelli (born 4 August 1940 in Bastia, Haute-Corse) is a French politician from Corsica. He serves as honorary President of the Radical Party of the Left and mayor of Bastia. Until his defeat in the French legislative election, 2007, he was deputy for Haute-Corse.[1]
In the French regional elections, 2004, he led a PRG list in Corse, and came out on top of all left-wing lists. But the lack of dialog between him and another PRG list, led by his rival Paul Giacobbi, prevented him from winning.
Contrarily to his party, he called for a "NO" vote in the 2005 referendum on the Treaty establishing a Constitution for Europe.
