French politician

Roger Meï (born 3 May 1935) is a French politician.

Meï's grandfather immigrated to France from Tuscany, settling in La Ciotat, where he found work at a shipyard. Meï was born in Hyères on 3 May 1935, and grew up poor on Porquerolles.

Meï was elected mayor of Gardanne in 1977 and served for 43 years, until Hervé Granier replaced in him in 2020. Each of his mayoral opponents had lost in the first round, except during the 1989 election cycle. He was a member of the National Assembly from 1996 to 2002, representing Bouches-du-Rhône's 10th constituency for the French Communist Party.
