No Labels will not run a third-party “unity” ticket against Donald Trump and Joe Biden in the 2024 presidential election, the group said Thursday.
In a statement, the centrist group said they were unable to find a candidate that had a credible path to winning on their hypothetical bipartisan platform — “so the responsible course of action is for us to stand down.”
“We will remain engaged over the next year during what is likely to be the most divisive presidential election of our lifetimes,” the group said.
“We will promote dialogue around major policy challenges and call out both sides when they speak and act in bad faith.”
The decision was first reported by The Wall Street Journal.
Despite being unable to field a satisfactory candidate, No Labels said Thursday that “Americans remain more open to an independent presidential run and hungrier for unifying national leadership than ever before.”
