The 2024 elections in the USA are becoming better defined by the day, now there will be no No Labels.
*No Labels Abandons Effort to Field a Presidential Candidate* *The centrist group laid out grand ambitions of running a third-party candidate in a Biden-Trump contest, but the most prominent figures it courted all said no.* New York Times By Rebecca Davis O’Brien and Reid J. Epstein April 4, 2024 The centrist group No Labels has abandoned its plans to run a presidential ticket in the 2024 election, having failed to recruit a candidate, its leader, Nancy Jacobson, said on Thursday. The group, which said last year it had raised $60 million to put forward what it called a bipartisan “unity ticket,” had suffered a string of rejections in recent months as prominent Republicans and Democrats declined to run on its ticket. The group had told donors and members that it would put forward a candidate if President Biden and former President Donald J. Trump were the main parties’ nominees. “Today, No Labels is ending our effort to put forth a Unity ticket in the 2024 presidential election,” Ms. Jacobson said in a statement. “Americans remain more open to an independent presidential run and hungrier for unifying national leadership than ever before. But No Labels has always said we would only offer our ballot line to a ticket if we could identify candidates with a credible path to winning the White House. No such candidates emerged, so the responsible course of action is for us to stand down.” https://www.nytimes.com/2024/04/04/us/politics/no-labels-election-presidential-candidate.html?campaign_id=9&emc=edit_nn_20240405&instance_id=119392&nl=the-morning®i_id=38183359&segment_id=162665&te=1&user_id=ef5ce672e120161228dcf3446bbc7a61 -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Groups.io Links: You receive all messages sent to this group.
