During the 2012 Presidential election, Jouanno suggested if she had to choose between a Socialist candidate and a National Front one, she would vote Socialist. This comment was interpreted by Sarkozy supporters such as Francois Fillon as being critical of Sarkozy's attempts to woo National Front supporters. In October 2012, she announced leaving the UMP party to join the newly created centre-right party UDI, led by Jean-Louis Borloo, as vice-president.
