**Zemmour’s explicit mid-September 2026 confirmation on BFMTV that he will run for president, combined with Knafo’s repeated public endorsement of him as Reconquête’s “natural candidate,” has driven the strong trader consensus.** As founder and president of the party, Zemmour stated he is “a candidate for the presidency of the Republic” and scheduled a formal announcement for autumn, likely November. Knafo, his partner and a prominent MEP and vice-president, has consistently rejected speculation about her own bid, emphasized complementary roles, and focused her visibility on economic messaging through her September 2026 bestseller on public finances. Joint party events and Zemmour’s continued public appearances, including recent campaign-style outings, have reinforced party unity without rivalry. The market resolves on the official Reconquête nominee listed for the first round by the Constitutional Council; no party designation has occurred yet, but these developments have anchored the implied probability.
