Senator Joe Manchin from West Virginia will appear in New Hampshire on Monday with a group that seems feared of the third-party presidential ticket, and it is also anticipated that they could hand the White House to former President Donald Trump. The Democratic Senator will take part in a town hall to support launching a new platform, “Common Sense,” to address the issues like immigration, health care, gun control, and economy-related issues. The session is hosted by the group No Label. The session’s main focus is to address the issues about which there is a conception that two ideological and increasingly extreme parties are underestimating them.
There is a senate election next year, and Manchin is facing it as well, but he has not announced yet whether he will run. He will be in his favorite political position on the right side of his party, will gain much attraction, and will raise his influence. For example, last year, Manchin first refused to support a massive climate, tax, and social safety net and planned to press President Biden to scale back and start negotiating a massive piece of his domestic agenda. West Virginia has well-helped Senator Manchin repeatedly win in the states with maximum Trump popularity nationwide.
Democrats are particularly nervous about the potential implications of Joe Biden’s decision to run for president. They are concerned about how this could impact his chances of being reelected and the possibility that if he decides not to run again, it will give Republicans an advantage in the 2024 Senate race. Senator Manchin told a news agency last week that his appearance in the Granite State has no objective about the third-party presidential run but merely focuses on stepping ahead for dialogue for common sense.

“No Labels” Thinking About Third-Party Unity Ticket
Senator Manchin has built a power base by keeping people guessing. He said he has never ruled over anything or in anything, but he has raised a question of whether an independent ticket could damage Biden’s reelection in November 2024. No Labels says it is thinking about the third-party unity ticket, which will involve one Republican and a Democrat in the 2024 White House presidential elections but will make the final decision next year. The decision will depend upon whether its insurance plan has a greater chance of winning.
For now, noncommittal answers from Senator Manchin have raised uncertainty even among his colleagues. Mark Kelly from Arizona presents a swing state, Biden, who won in 2024 presidential elections by the lead of only 10000 votes. Kelly spoke to a media agency, saying he stood with Manchin in raising the matter of third-party candidates. Kelly expressed that in his views, the No Labels is not a political party as there is dark money behind the organization, which a few individuals are putting, and this is not democracy.
Additionally, Kerry said it should never be about rich people. He represented his concerns about the activities happening in Arizona and nationwide. No Labels is a non-profit organization that doesn’t disclose its donors. This is run by a former Harvard professor and public intellectual Cornel West, who backed independent Vermont senator Bernie Sanders during his Democratic presidential campaigns for 2016 and 2020.
