Sen. Bill Cassidy said he will not be on No Labels’ presidential ticket, removing himself from the shrinking list of elected officials who opened the door to the group.

“I am not being considered now by No Labels,” he told NOTUS Monday night in the Capitol. He said he has “talked to No Labels about the presidential ticket, in general,” but added, “It was never going to be me in particular.”

The senator said he was “of course” still interested in following the organization’s plans.
