LINCOLNVILLE, Maine Maine's top election official is concerned No Labels is unwitting enrolling voters in its third-party presidential effort as the well-funded centrist organization attempts to get on the ballot across the country in 2024.
Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows sent a cease and desist to No Labels and official letters to every voter registered with the party last month after what she said were numerous complaints from local clerks and voters who said No Labels organizers misled voters.
Voter after voter is telling my team that they were instructed that they were merely signing a petition. They were not told they were changing their political party, Bellows, who is a Democrat, said in an interview Monday. We have had enough similar complaints from voters and clerks alike that it raises serious concerns in our office about No Labels Party organizers.
No Labels is trying to get on the ballot in states across the country as it prepares to mount what could be the most formidable third-party presidential campaign in a generation. Democrats worry their candidate could be a spoiler who would help re-elect former President Donald Trump.

Everyone who was duped by these turds should have their registration restored to what it was.

(155,064 posts)No labels is a GOP/TFG scam to help TFG win. Rove used and funded Nader in 2000 and TFG was elected due to Jill Stein and Sarandon. The GOP uses third parties to steal elections.

Officially, No Labels mission is to create a space for moderates on both the left and the right to come together and find solutions above the partisan fray. But the group has managed to anger Democrats at times by endorsing conservative candidates such as then-Representative Cory Gardner in Colorado, who was running for Senate against moderate Democrat Mark Udall in 2014. No Labels also labeled Donald Trump a problem solver in the early days of the 2016 campaign because he signed a piece of paper No Labels circulated supposedly committing to enacting certain reforms if elected.....
Crow is the Texas billionaire who was the subject of an extensive ProPublica investigation into his ties to Thomas. In secret, Crow had been giving lavish gifts to the high court justice and bought a home that Thomas owned with his mother and brother. Thomas did not disclose those gifts, which is most likely a violation of federal law......
Theres an important through line between No Labels and Crow, and its not a passion for bipartisanship. Rather, its indulging conservatives under the flag of bipartisanship. They both argue that the best solutions are ones born out of moderation, with both Democrats and Republicans involved. But Crows ardor for Thomas, who has been found to be the most conservative justice on the bench by one academic analysis, doesnt exactly square with love of bipartisanship, and the actions by No Labels suggest that the group would rather create an opening for conservatives to thrive.
Bush won in 2000 due to Rove funding Nader. TFG won in 2016 due to Russia and Jill Stein. Harlan Crow is trying to help TFG in 2024 with this faux third party
