ICYMI: USA Today: “No Labels tells me they don’t want to be a 2024 election spoiler. It’s time to prove it.”

Rahna Epting: “They’re inconsistent. They’re unclear. The math doesn’t add up.”  READ THE STORY HERE Washington, D.C. – A new piece from USA Today highlights No Labels’ third-party campaign, supported by dark money and a secret nomination process that is nearly universally believed to be a spoiler effort to reelect Trump.  “They are contradicting themselves regularly,” MoveOn Political Action Executive Director Rahna Epting says in the story. “They’re inconsistent.

A Wild and Dangerous 2024 Experiment

Biden’s Economic Formula to Win in 2024

The study, scheduled to be released today, seeks to mitigate one of the party’s most glaring vulnerabilities heading into the 2024 election: the consistent finding in surveys that when it comes to managing the national economy or addressing inflation, significantly more voters express confidence in Republicans than in Democrats. To close…

NEW: No Labels Leaders “Cashing In on 2024 Hype”

Daily Beast: “Top six officials pulled in $ 1.5 million in salary—averaging just over $ 240,000 per person.” No Labels “has declined to share virtually any information about who is supporting its ambitious challenge” in 2024. Washington, D.C. – In response to new reporting by the Daily Beast that finds “the centrist group plotting a 2024 challenge is raising lots of dough, padding its leaders’ paychecks,” MoveOn Political Action Chief Communications Officer Joel Payne released the following statement: “The millionaires who run No Labels can live without another vacation home,…
