'No Labels' Pat McCrory Quits Before Spoiler Candidate Committee Launch
AS RFK JR. ponders which celebrity to tap as his VP, another third-party presidential ticket seems to be running out of steam.
No Labels, the self-proclaimed centrist organization with dark money funding, had one of its national leaders abruptly resign Wednesday.
Former North Carolina Gov. #Pat #McCrory (R), who served as one of the group’s national co-chairs, informed the organization he was quitting to spend more time with his family, according to the Wall Street Journal.
The departure arrives a day before No Labels was set to debut a committee for selecting its presidential candidate. McCrory began working for the organization a year after his failed 2022 Senate campaign and had said he was on the road volunteering for the group.
“I wish them the best. It was a great honor to serve. I am still rooting for the movement,” he told WSJ.
Among those remaining in No Labels’ national leadership are former Vice Presidential candidate #Joe #Lieberman and civil rights activist #Benjamin #Chavis #Jr.
Former Missouri Gov. #Jay #Nixon (D) is the director of their national ballot integrity project
