No Labels ends 2024 presidential efforts
NBC News ^ | April 4, 2024 | Vaughn Hillyard, Katherine Koretski and Stephanie Ruhle

Posted on 04/04/2024 8:04:00 PM PDT by Coronal

No Labels, the bipartisan group that had been working toward putting a third-party presidential ticket on the ballot in all 50 states in 2024, announced Thursday that it was ending its efforts.

"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 Labels CEO and co-founder Nancy Jacobson said in a statement. "No such candidates emerged, so the responsible course of action is for us to stand down."

Jacobson said the group will "remain engaged over the next year during what is likely to be the most divisive presidential election of our lifetimes. We will promote dialogue around major policy challenges and call out both sides when they speak and act in bad faith."

“No Labels, the bipartisan group” Nonsense—but this is NBC, which prides itself in unabashedly promulgating nonsense. Hope they threw away a lot of money, a lot of their own.

“the worst of the worst...“

Many contenders for that title. I’d say Yahoo “news”, AP and The Guardian are tied for 1st

AP’s the biggest disappointment.

The check from the DNC must have cleared.

No surprise, they didn’t have anyone credible to be the sacraficial lamb.

Pretty much everyone voting in November is either voting for Trump or against Trump. Thus, I suspect that the DNC Polling showed that the more choices that the anti-Trump vote gets, the more those voters will split their vote. The only way they could have helped Biden was to get a “Trump without the Baggage” candidate, and they simply don’t exist*.

*DeSantis was thought to be that person, but he too bowed down to the Neocons and thereby collapsed as a candidate.

Have to agree with you.
They couldn't find a candidate that helped Biden, so they quit.

DNC is going balls to the wall on abortion. They don’t want to chance that No Labels can stop Trump.

If you have a candidate running as "No Labels", then, you have the label of No-Label.

"No Label" is for the voting public, who may classify themselves as 'No Label".

Once a party gets a candidate and uses the "No Label" tag, for that candidate, then, it's a political party, with predefined issues or a platform to run with.

This is going to complicate things for people who want their nomination, and in states where they’ve already qualified.

What happens if someone or some group files as No Labels electors? In some states, they could pull that off. Then what?

People have already gotten in trouble for doing that for Trump in the last election.

They're closing shop because they lost their marquee value when Joe Lieberman died.
