Larry Hogan is open to a presidential bid with No Labels.
Maryland’s Former Republican Governor Larry Hogan Considers 2024 Presidential Run
Larry Hogan, the former Republican governor of Maryland, is keeping his options open for a potential 2024 presidential run. However, he is not considering running on a GOP ticket. Hogan recently appeared on CBS News’s Face the Nation to discuss the current presidential candidates within the Republican Party. As the Honorary Chairman of the No Labels party, the conversation naturally shifted towards the possibility of a third-party ticket if former President Donald Trump were to secure the Republican nomination once again.
Considering a No Labels Ticket
“Let’s be real. If Trump is going to end up — looks like the nominee January or February of next year, are you, Larry Hogan, open to being atop a No Labels ticket as a Republican-type candidate with No Labels?” anchor Bob Costa asked.
“It’s not something I’m pursuing,” Hogan initially responded. “I’m hoping we don’t get to that point. I have not closed the door to that. If I believe we can win the race — we have a strong ticket that those two major candidates — we might have to try to pull off something that’s never been done, which is sort of what I did in Maryland.”
Hogan’s reference to his record-breaking reelection as the first Republican governor in Maryland to win a second term piqued interest. He secured the most votes of any governor in Maryland’s history.
A Chance for No Labels
“Again, I’m still hopeful that — I’m not sure sitting here today that Donald Trump and Joe Biden are the two nominees or whether this lifts off the ground,” Hogan continued. “If that’s the case, I do believe that this group has a chance to get access to the ballot in all 50 states, and if they put together, you know, a really great ticket and ran a perfect campaign, that they would actually have a shot to be not just a spoiler, but to be in it to win it.”
In the race for the GOP presidential nomination, Trump is up against several notable contenders, including former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley, former Arkansas Gov. Asa Hutchinson, former governor of New Jersey Chris Christie, former Texas representative Will Hurd, former Vice President Mike Pence, Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), Gov. Doug Burgum (R-ND), Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL), Miami Mayor Francis Suarez, political commentator Larry Elder, businessman Perry Johnson, and entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy.
