No Labels may finally have a candidate in consideration for its third-party "unity ticket" in the 2024 presidential election.
Sources familiar with the group's efforts to field a third-party ticket tell ABC News that No Labels representatives have had meetings with former Georgia GOP Lt. Gov. Geoff Duncan about running as the group's presidential candidate.
Duncan wouldn't comment on this report, but isn't shutting down speculation.
On Friday, No Labels voted to move forward with the effort to field a bi-partisan challenge to the presumptive Democratic and Republican nominees President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump.
According to the sources, Duncan has meet with the No Labels leadership and this weekend will be meeting with Republican donors in a series of meetings set up by No Labels.
Duncan served as Georgia's lieutenant governor from 2019 to 2023. While he is a conservative Republican, he has been sharply critical of Trump's efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election.

No brains candidate.
Nope. Duncan ALSO had the option of using his own LT Governor bully pulpit to speak out about the duplicitous deal (signature verifications) Raffensperger was colluding with Democrats on. Neither he nor Kemp said a word. Not no, but hell no

Amen!!!
RINO = Leftwing Socialist embedded in GOP
Who?
I forgot that guy even existed.
Actually this No Labels can only hurt Biden who is already trailing in nearly if not all Swing States.
You’re right. That’s why I call politicians of his ilk “Chamber RINOs.” If there is one word one can use to describe sycophants of the U.S. Chamber of Crypto-Fascist, Crony Commerce, it’s “bipartisan.”
The only reason why he would be entering the race is to deny former President Trump the state of Georgia.
“I assume they are shopping around for a candidate who could be expected to do the most damage to Trump and the least damage to Biden.”
Correct.
Fortunately for us that person is a Unicorn.
This clown will get under 1% of the vote. Jill Stein will get more support.
Correct.
The reason any third party hurts Biden—no matter who it is—is the mass media situation.
Third parties will be on all the talk shows and if they have money they can advertise on the mass media.
The audience who actually consumes this stuff is Democrats.
Potential Trump voters—even those on the fence—do not trust the mass media and do not use it.
Interestingly the Democratic political pros are well aware of this situation—that is why they are making life as miserable as they can for any third party.
Btw this is why Nikki Haley got no traction with $100 million and appearing on every TV talk show in the land over and over and over again...
The only people who heard her message was Democrats. That got her some Democratic or Democratic leaning Independents but Republicans and Republican leaning Independents were totally unaffected by her media blitz.
Here are the numbers to prove it:

Before Nikki’s media blitz President Trump’s primary poll numbers were about 60%.
Five months and $100 million Nikki bucks later President Trump’s primary poll numbers were about 78%.
Lol.
I agree. But it doesn’t mean they won’t try like Hell!
Yeah—they are not going to give up without a fight.
My advice to TV executives—fire all the humans and replace them with artificial intelligence.
AI can do propaganda better.
