Playbook: “A prominent Democratic think tank is raising alarms about a third-party ticket spoiling 2024 for Democrats and landing Donald Trump back in the White House.”
“A new two-page memo from Third Way takes aim at the potential ‘unity ticket’ being promoted by the centrist group No Labels. With tens of millions of dollars in financial backing, No Labels’ stated intention is to nominate a moderate alternative to potential extreme major-party nominees as an ‘insurance policy.’”
“A No Labels ticket would not have to be especially successful to spoil a Democratic win, the memo points out: Biden won six of the seven most competitive states by three points or fewer. As such, it argues, ‘even a paltry third-party performance would put 79 Biden electoral votes at risk.’”
