"...François Fillon, the conservative candidate, _(c)_ supporters to vote for Mr Macron"
The context in the sentence is to ask someone to vote for a candidate hence URGE that means to recommend someone or something strongly is most fitting .
D option DENIGRATE that means to criticize somebody/something unfairly is not correctly conveying the meaning .
