Career edit
She was elected to represent the department of Hérault in the Senate of France (le Sénat) on 21 September 2008. She is a member of the Union for a Popular Movement (UMP), which is a part of the European People's Party (PPE).
In the 2012 legislative elections, Françoise Briand obtained 46.10% of the votes in the seventh constituency of Essonne, according to the results published on the Ministry of the Interior's website.[1] This outcome was considered very negative for her campaign, as the constituency had traditionally been a stronghold for right-wing parties since its establishment.
In the 2014 municipal elections, Françoise Briand ran as a candidate supported by the Union for a Popular Movement (UMP). However, she received only 20.26% of the votes in the first round, placing her behind incumbent mayor Simone Mathieu from the Left Party, who obtained 24.47% of the votes. She was also significantly behind Jean-Marie Vilain from the Ainsi va la ville association, who garnered 40.20% of the votes. As a result, she was compelled to withdraw from the election. Ultimately, the "Ainsi Va La Ville" list emerged victorious with 65% of the votes in the second round.
