Democratic Donor Group Secretly Opposes No Labels
Originally Published 2 years ago — by POLITICO
The Democracy Alliance, a powerful network of liberal donors, is privately working to prevent No Labels from launching a third-party presidential run, fearing it could act as a spoiler and help Donald Trump or another Republican candidate defeat President Joe Biden in 2024. The Democracy Alliance met with Third Way and MoveOn to discuss No Labels and urged leading donors and fundraisers to discourage support for the organization. No Labels has secured access to the ballot in multiple states and has a $70 million budget for a potential third-party effort. Critics argue that winning as a third-party candidate is not feasible and are hoping to convince No Labels not to proceed with their plan.
