In a lawsuit, the Arizona Democratic Party conceded that allowing the No Labels Party on the 2024 ballot will make electing its own candidates more difficult.
Howard Fischer Capitol Media Services PHOENIX — The Arizona Democratic Party filed suit Thursday to keep the No Labels Party off the 2024 ballot, conceding it fears its presence"will make it more difficult to elect Democratic Party candidates."
"To date, No Labels has not publicly disclosed its donors, leaving the sources of much of its funding largely unknown," the lawsuit states."Nor has No Labels publicly identified the donors behind the initiative to have it certified as a political party in Arizona, despite federal laws requiring political party committees spending more than $5,000 to influence a federal election to identify their donors in filings with the Federal Election Commission.
That could have implications for Democrat Joe Biden if he decides to seek another term, particularly in Arizona. He only narrowly edged out Donald Trump by 10,457 votes in 2020. And having Sinema on the ballot could draw votes away from Ruben Gallego or whoever wins the Democratic primary, a move that could aid the Republican nominee."This undemocratic and outrageous lawsuit is a disgrace," he said. And he took a slap at the Arizona Democratic Party for going to court to keep his organization off the ballot.
