NextImg:‘No Labels’ official floats Nikki Haley for third-party presidential ticket

If things don’t work out for Nikki Haley running in the Republican presidential primary, she could get another chance as a third-party candidate. 

Joe Cunningham, former Democratic congressman from South Carolina and current national director of the centrist political group No Labels, said Ms. Haley is “somebody we’d definitely be interested in” for a unity ticket with one Republican and one Democrat. 

“We’re looking for great, quality people, folks that have broad appeal to independents, Democrats and Republicans,” Mr. Cunningham said Sunday on “Fox & Friends Weekend.” 

Although she’s vowed to remain in the GOP race, Ms. Haley‘s days are likely numbered as former President Donald Trump continues to dominate the primary. 

He bested Ms. Haley, his former U.N. ambassador, by 20 points in her home state of South Carolina on Saturday, where she has served as governor. 

Other No Labels members have previously floated Ms. Haley as a potential candidate for their third-party ticket, which they don’t plan to formally announce until after Super Tuesday on March 5. 

The organization has also name-checked prominent politicians known for bipartisanship like Sens. Joe Manchin III, West Virginia Democrat, and Mitt Romney, Utah Republican. But both of those men have said they’re not interested. 

“After Super Tuesday, we’re going to look at who the presumptive nominees are, and if the vast majority of Americans are unhappy with those, and we feel like we can put forward a ticket or offer our ballot line to a candidate who can win, then we’re going to offer that ballot line,” Mr. Cunningham said.
