The centrist group is scrapping its $70 million “unity” ticket effort after failing to find a candidate
“Americans remain more open to an independent presidential run, and hungrier for unifying national leadership, than ever before,” the organizationin a statement. “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.
No Labels launched its third-party pitch with grand ambitions and a reported mountain of cash: The organization planned to spendon its campaign to secure ballot access around the country for a unity ticket. From the start, the project raised concerns among Democrats that the third-party effort could undermine Biden and help tip the election to Trump — a fear that is further exacerbated by Robert Kennedy Jr. running as an independent.
No Labels’ unnamed delegates voted last month to move forward with the unity ticket plan, despite its inability to find a candidate. The organization announced the formation of a “Country Over Party Committee,” a group of 12 people who would help No Labels select a presidential and vice presidential candidate.
