“Former New Jersey governor Chris Christie (R) has decided against running as the No Labels candidate for president after spending time and money gaming out the prospects of a centrist third-party bid against President Biden and former president Donald Trump,” the Washington Post reports.
“The decision leaves the group with few remaining high-profile options for candidates, despite widespread public concern over the two major-party contenders.”
Said Christie: “I appreciate the encouragement I’ve gotten to pursue a third-party candidacy. While I believe this is a conversation that needs to be had with the American people, I also believe that if there is not a pathway to win and if my candidacy in any way, shape or form would help Donald Trump become president again, then it is not the way forward.”
