Alain Juppé, a former Prime Minister and close ally of President Jacques Chirac, became the new party's first president.
Candidates seeking to run for the party presidency needed to win the endorsements of at least 3% of party members. Each candidate created a "ticket" with two other party members for the offices of vice-president and secretary-general of the UMP.
