After a period of hesitation, Teva Rohfritsch, outgoing senator from French Polynesia, announced his candidacy for a second term, this time without a political label. Drawing on his six years of experience, he aims to strengthen decentralization and give more power to the municipalities. His running mate, Vaiana Tematua-Estall, will accompany him in this campaign focused on local issues, such as the high cost of living and environmental protection.
