**Zemmour leads Reconquête’s internal positioning for the 2027 presidential race.** As founder and president of the party, he confirmed in mid-September 2026 on BFMTV that he intends to run, following earlier signals at party events and the launch of Sarah Knafo’s book *Le Casse du siècle*. Knafo, the party’s vice-president and MEP, has repeatedly described Zemmour as the “natural candidate,” ruled out her own presidential bid, and focused on expanding the party’s economic messaging while maintaining a complementary public role. No formal primary or nomination vote has occurred, and Zemmour continues to set the party’s agenda on issues such as immigration policy and education. These public statements and Zemmour’s institutional control within Reconquête underpin traders’ strong consensus around his selection.
