She is mayor of Montauban since March 2001.[1] She was reelected for a second term on 16 March 2008, then for a third term on 30 March 2014.
Barèges sparked a controversy when she voiced brusque opposition to proposals for legalized same-sex marriage: "Why not let people get married to animals too?"[2]
Barèges sparked a controversy when she described a black person of her party as "humain stain".[3]
Barèges was punished by French courts because she refused to celebrate the wedding of a foreign couple.[4]
On 17 February 2014, the prosecutor announces that it will conduct an investigation for embezzlement of public funds. Despite this challenge on the judicial front, March 30, 2014, Barèges won the municipal elections in Montauban for a third term. During the summer of 2014, CNCCFP rejects the accounts for the municipal elections. On October 21, 2014, following the rejection of her campaign accounts, Barèges is comdamned to 1 year ineligibility and non reimbursement of campaign expenses by the Administrative Court of Toulouse. The court mentioned the use of municipality funds to pay an illegal advertising campaign during the election.[5]
