West Virginia Senate Race Sparks Third-Party Speculation and Trust Issues.

Senator Joe Manchin's criticism of President Biden's leadership has fueled speculation that he may challenge Biden as a third-party candidate in 2024. Manchin has praised No Labels, a centrist political group that is trying to gain access to the ballot in all 50 states to open a path for a third-party candidate to run for president. He has repeatedly declined to knock down chatter that he may run for president as a third-party candidate and told reporters last week he won’t make a decision about his political future until the end of the year.
