In July 2019, Bono-Vandorme decided not to align with her parliamentary group’s majority and became one of 52 LREM members who abstained from a vote on the French ratification of the European Union’s Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) with Canada.

In January 2017, Bono-Vandorme was chosen by the Union of Democrats and Independents to be a new candidate in Aisne’s 1st constituency in the 2017 French legislative election. However, an electoral alliance between the Union of Democrats and Independents and The Republicans in March 2017 caused Bono-Vandorme to lose the party’s nomination. Bono-Vandorme did not withdraw her candidacy, choosing to run against The Republicans’ candidate Christophe Coulon, and she was suspended from all functions of the Union of Democrats and Independents.

After her suspension, on 18 April 2017, Bono-Vandorme endorsed Emmanuel Macron in the imminent 2017 French presidential election. She drew closer to La République En Marche!, and on 11 May she won the nomination of En Marche! for Aisne’s 1st constituency. She was endorsed by the incumbent René Dosière, despite having run against him in 2012.

In 2013, Bono-Vandorme became the president of the local branch of the Union of Democrats and Independents in Aisne. Then, in March 2014, she was re-elected as a municipal councilor in Laon on the list of Antoine Lefèvre. She became the premier assistant mayor, a position that she lost in September 2014 following a disagreement with Lefèvre.

Originally a member of the Union for French Democracy and later a member of The Centrists, Bono-Vandorme was elected to the municipal council in Laon in March 2008 on the list of the incumbent Union for a Popular Movement mayor, Antoine Lefèvre, later becoming the deputy mayor. In 2010, she ran in the regional elections of Picardy on the list of Caroline Cayeux, but was not elected. In 2012, Bono-Vandorme ran in Aisne’s 1st constituency under the label of the New Center, and was also nominated by the Union for a Popular Movement. She lost a three-way contest in the second round with 38.60% of the vote, against incumbent René Dosière with 42.19% and Fawaz Karimet with 19.21%.
