Chris Christie decides against No Labels presidential run
Quick Glance: Chris Christie Declines No Labels Presidential Bid
  • Former New Jersey governor Chris Christie (R) has made the decision not to run as the No Labels candidate for president after extensively evaluating the prospects of a centrist third-party campaign against President Biden and former president Donald Trump.

  • During the recent weeks, Christie, along with his team, explored the possibility of joining a No Labels campaign, while No Labels leaders intensified their efforts to court him as a candidate.

  • In conclusion, Christie determined that while there is an abstract interest in a third choice in the upcoming election, there is no practical path to victory. The challenges include significant ballot access and legal expenses, a delayed start in fundraising campaign funds, and the risk of diverting votes from Biden to elect Trump as president, according to those involved.

  • The No Labels leaders have set a deadline in early April to nominate a presidential ticket, with a clear indication that they will only proceed if they can recruit someone with a feasible chance of winning. Individuals involved with No Labels have informed others in recent weeks that they anticipate Christie will be the nominee, as reported by individuals familiar with the discussions.

  • Additionally, the court imposed a stay on the part of the initial judgment that restricted Trump from acting as a public officer of a company, as well as prohibitions on other individuals, although not all of Trump's requests were granted.

Quick Glance: Trump Trails Biden in Fundraising Amid Legal Bill Challenges
  • President Biden's campaign maintains a significant financial edge over Donald Trump, who faces the challenges of fundraising for his potential return to office and settling his increasing legal bills seven months before the general election.

  • Federal Election Commission reports revealed Biden's clear financial advantage over Trump, with Biden having $71 million in cash on hand compared to Trump's $33.5 million - more than double his rival's reserves.

  • The reports highlight how Trump's legal issues are straining his campaign. Save America, the PAC used by the Trump campaign to cover legal expenses, spent more than it raised in February, with the majority of funds going towards legal costs.

  • While trailing Trump in early polls, Biden's campaign and allied groups are surpassing Trump's fundraising efforts and the cash amassed for the general election.
