No Labels made a suggestion to Nikki Haley to affix their third-party presidential ticket and was instantly shot down by the Haley marketing campaign.
“If Gov. Haley does not succeed in obtaining the Republican nomination for president and she declares any interest in being part of our bipartisan unity ticket, I’m sure the people at No Labels would give that the most serious consideration, but obviously she’s not done that because she’s an active Republican candidate for president,” mentioned Lieberman, a former Senator.
….
“Nikki has no interest in No Labels, she’s happy with the Republican label,” Haley spokesperson Olivia Perez-Cubas mentioned in a textual content message.
However it’s clear that No Labels views Haley positively, whether or not on their ticket or because the GOP standard-bearer. Two individuals accustomed to the group’s pondering, who had been granted anonymity to talk candidly, mentioned that No Labels would favor that Haley win the GOP nomination since she’s a mainstream Republican. If Haley received the nomination, the group would doubtless not run a No Labels ticket.
Nikki Haley ought to have zero curiosity in No Labels as a result of the ticket that they’re threatening to run is doomed. It’s unclear whether or not No Labels can get on the poll. Joe Lieberman’s feedback additionally recommend that No Labels doesn’t even have a plan or candidates in thoughts.
No Labels has struggled to drum up enthusiasm for a third-party spoiler ticket. Not many individuals are involved in supporting an effort that would assist put Donald Trump again within the White Home. No Labels has additionally apparently misjudged the angle amongst potential Biden supporters towards their effort. Democrats and Democratic leaners aren’t trying to dump President Biden.
Somebody like Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) main a third-party ticket doesn’t get the political blood flowing.
The concept that No Labels floated the potential of becoming a member of the ticket to Nikki Haley means that the floundering effort is beginning to get a bit of determined.
