Two-thirds of Democratic-leaning voters clearly say they do. They say they want someone other than President Joe Biden atop their ticket, but the Democratic National Committee has adopted several measures to prevent challengers from emerging. That includes changing their primary calendar, creating a new class of party-approved superdelegates and refusing to hold any primary debates. 

Meanwhile, state Republican parties in Idaho, California, Michigan, Nevada and Louisiana created new delegate selection rules and election processes viewed as brazen attempts to clear the primary path for former President Donald Trump. 

These are the same people – on both sides – preaching that No Labels’ effort to get on the ballot in 2024 is a “danger” to democracy. Fortunately, most Americans see right through this democracy hypocrisy. 

Even without the latest measures by the Democratic and Republican parties to stack the deck, U.S. presidential primaries are hardly a model of openness and inclusivity. 

• In the four presidential elections going back to 2008, only 27.5 percent of registered voters participated in primaries (compared to more than 60 percent in the general election). 
• In 2020, some 10.6 million independent voters in 10 states were prevented from voting in primaries because their states have closed primaries, where independent or unaffiliated voters are prohibited from participating. 

This is why we keep ending up with candidates that don’t reflect, and often despise, the views of America’s Commonsense Majority. 

With more than a year to go until the 2024 election, the Democratic and Republican parties are indisputably standing in the way of what most Americans want. No one should be surprised there is so much enthusiasm for the work that No Labels is doing to provide Americans more choice.

Over the past several months, No Labels has been consulting with our members and voters across the country to develop our selection process for a potential Unity presidential ticket. Later this fall, we’ll release details. 

But we want to know, do you think voters deserve more choices for president in 2024?

It certainly won’t be perfect, but this much we can say for sure: it will be better than what our two parties are offering.
