Front paysan
The Front paysan was a group founded in 1934 and consisted of:
- The French Agrarian and Peasant Party
- The Comités de défense paysanne
- The Union nationale des syndicats agricoles
In the 1935 [Loir-et-Cher by-election|1935] Henry Dorgeres the founder of the Comités de défense paysanne stood unsuccessfully for the Loir-et-Cher department under the Front paysan's banner, where he was narrowly defeated in the second [round of voting] by the Radical-Socialist candidate Émile Laurens.
The Front's ambiguous view towards Republican institutions meant that it did not have support from the Croix de Feu.
The Front fell apart in 1936 due to differences in political strategy.
