I coulda’ been a contenda’ is the watchword leading up to the primary season. Are they just being coy? Or will 2024 go down in history as the election year of spoilers and kingmakers?
Several politicians are generating speculation about potential late entries into the 2024 presidential race, prompting interest and questions about alternative candidates. Figures like former Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan and Sen. Joe Manchin have raised the possibility of running, while Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin and Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp have also been considered.
This interest reflects voter frustration with the current front-runners, President Biden and former President Trump, who have faced challenges with unfavorable ratings or are facing legal actions. Additionally, the centrist ticket proposed by No Labels has gained attention, although concerns exist about its potential to act as a spoiler in the race.
