GOP presidential candidate Chris Christie said he has no plans to join the No Labels's third-party movement, calling it a"fool's errand."
“I’m not in this for showtime. I’m not in this for making a point. I’m in this to get elected president of the United States, and there are only two people who will get elected president of the United States: the Republican nominee for president and the Democratic nominee for president,” Christie said in a Sunday interview with George Stephanopoulos on ABC’s This Week.No Labels has sought to open the door for a third-party candidate in several presidential elections.
The group has launched a $70 million campaign to secure an independent ticket in the United States, worrying mainly Democrats and their allies that this will give Trump an easy victory in the 2024 election. Polling from center-left groups has shown that a No Labels ticket will be a"spoiler" and a"moderate independent candidate" would deliver Trump a narrow victory.
Speculation is rising over who No Labels could select as their third-party candidate, with most people eyeing Sen. Joe Manchin or former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan.“They think they know who they’re going to hurt. They want to hurt Donald Trump if he’s the nominee. But, you know, when you get into a third-party campaign – we saw this with Ross Perot, we saw this later with Ralph Nader – You never quite know who you’re going to hurt in that process,” Christie said.
The group has said polling shows a substantial amount of voters, approximately 21%, who are undecided — which No Labels says provides an “unprecedented opening” for the third-party candidate to win.
