Andrew Yang hints at presidential bid with No Labels: ‘Discussions have taken place’
Andrew Yang’s Potential White House Run on No Labels Ticket
Former 2020 Democratic presidential candidate Andrew Yang has sparked speculation about a potential White House run on the No Labels party’s third-party ticket. When asked directly about this, Yang didn’t provide a clear answer but revealed that he has had conversations with individuals associated with No Labels.
Yang, who recently launched the centrist Forward Party, emphasized the importance of supporting a candidate who can defeat former President Donald Trump. He described himself as an “anyone-but-Trump guy” and stated that he wouldn’t run for president if it would be counterproductive or increase the chances of Trump being reelected.
No Labels, a centrist party that is gaining access to ballots across the country, has hinted at the possibility of a 2024 presidential ticket if the major parties nominate candidates who are disapproved of by most voters. The party is already on the ballot for at least 10 states.
Speculation about potential candidates has been mounting as No Labels holds events with centrist Democrats and Republicans, including Senator Joe Manchin and former Republican Utah Governor Jon Huntsman. Yang finds the idea of a rematch between Trump and President Joe Biden “terribly unrepresentative and borderline ridiculous,” particularly due to their ages, 77 and 80, respectively.
Senator Manchin hasn’t dismissed the possibility of running on a No Labels ticket and has further fueled speculation by delaying an announcement about his reelection campaign in West Virginia. Former Republican Maryland Governor Larry Hogan has also expressed openness to the idea. Most recently, Senator Bill Cassidy has entertained the possibility of joining a potential No Labels ticket.
