Miscellaneous right

Miscellaneous right (divers droite, DVD) in France refers to right-wing candidates that are not member of any large party. They either include small right-wing parties, dissidents expelled from their parties for running against their party's candidate, as well as candidates who were never formal members of a party. Numerous divers droite candidates are elected at a local level, but also at a national level.
