CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Former Gov. Pat McCrory says he’s is tired of your labels.
He’s doesn’t consider himself a “radical extremist Republican” or a “left-wing RINO” — Republican in Name Only.
McCrory said he’s tired of Republicans and Democrats choosing whose names appear on ballots when he believes the majority of Americans don’t support people chosen by the two major parties.
That’s why McCrory has joined forces with civil rights leader Benjamin Chavis Jr. to help develop a presidential 2024 unity ticket for the self-described centrist group, No Labels. McCrory, a Republican, is the former mayor of Charlotte and ran unsuccessfully for U.S. Senate in 2022. Chavis has a resume that includes working with Martin Luther King Jr., being a leader of the Wilmington 10 and considered the godfather of the environmental justice movement.
Before you ask, McCrory quickly cleared up any notion his name might be on that ticket. He isn’t planning to run for president in 2024 and says he’s still “as strong of a Republican as I ever was.” But he is serving as a volunteer for the organization.
No Labels, a group founded in 2010, plans to run a third-party candidate only if data shows that Americans aren’t satisfied with the party nominees and the No Labels candidates have a path forward to win, McCrory said. It’s working to be recognized as a third-party option on ballots in all 50 states, a costly endeavor.
“The people are saying very loudly that two parties might be nominating two candidates that most people don’t want,” McCrory said. “To me the two parties are failing.”
On Tuesday, McCrory and former Sen. Joe Lieberman, an independent from Connecticut, will discuss the organizations’ $70 million plan at a Washington Post event.

Once an insidious RINO, always an insidious RINO!
No Labels = no chance.
Can you name ANY elected officials who consider themselves “radical extremist Republican” or a “left-wing RINO?”
They look like FBI agents.
When they claim they aren’t a RINO, that’s politician talk for they I absolutely am a RINO, but I’m pretending to be something else.
After the a$$ whipping he took last year from Ted Budd good riddance
Money laundering scheme
Aged frat boys. I bet they are all wearing loafers with no socks.
Left to Right: PAUL RYAN (traitor),
Pat McCrory (who would be Gov of NC now if he had supported Trump, but nooo- he let Roy Cooper run all over him. Not too bright- chief counsel of law firm representing Duke Energy power company in 3 states. The one that put up hundreds of wind turbines in Pamlico Sound).
Richard Burr (absolute moron former co-chair of the Senate Intel committee with VA Sen Warner. A real idiot, owned by Tobacco),
Mittens Romney (the Panama Papers Offshore money, lying sack of crap used car salesmand with magic mormon underwear).
