Former GOP Gov. Daniels says no to third-party presidential run

A former GOP governor says “no thanks” to running a third-party presidential ticket. Republican Mitch Daniels worked in the Reagan and George W. Bush administrations before becoming governor of Indiana. He said he’s had informal conversations with backers of the centrist group No Labels. But Daniels told Politico he is not considering a third-party bid on behalf of the organization. No Labels says it is seeking ballot access in many states and will run a bipartisan “unity ticket” for president “if the two parties select unreasonably divisive presidential nominees.”
