Chris Christie Appears Open To No Labels Third-Party Run
HuffPost
The former New Jersey governor dropped out of the Republican primary contest in early January, ahead of the Iowa caucuses.
Former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) left the door open to launching a third-party run with No Labels following his decision to drop out of the Republican presidential primary contest last month.
During a “Good Morning America” interview that aired Tuesday, Christie said that No Labels, a centrist third-party group, hasn’t directly approached him about joining their ticket. He also said that he would need to have a “long conversation” with his wife, Mary Pat, regarding a potential third-party run and definitely “see a path” to 270 electoral votes to align with the group.
Last month, NBC News reported that No Labels had reached out to people close to Christie to inquire whether he would be interested in teaming up with the organization. According to its website, the group intends to offer a bipartisan “unity ticket” for the 2024 presidential election (although the group may not include a Democrat on its ticket).
Christie dropped out of the Republican primary race in January ahead of the Iowa caucuses, saying he saw no way to win the party’s nomination.
During his “GMA” appearance, Christie said it “doesn’t look like” Nikki Haley has any chance of defeating Donald Trump, adding that he is unlikely to endorse her given she hasn’t been critical enough of the former president on the campaign trail.
