Biden allies try to block third party bids that threaten his reelection
Allies of President Biden are trying to block third party bids that threaten his reelection. Worried that third-party bids from the centrist group No Labels and Robert Kennedy Jr. could take votes away from Joe Biden, the president’s allies are taking action.
