EXCLUSIVE: Jon Huntsman may run on third-party ticket

Jon Huntsman hinted to The Daily that he might run as the nominee for a party other than the Republicans. 

After vowing to run as a Republican or nothing at all, Huntsman gave himself a little wiggle room this week to be the nominee of Americans Elect, a well-funded nonprofit group well on its way to getting on the presidential ballot in all 50 states.

The lagging GOP contender told The Daily he is “not even considering” an Americans Elect run, though he quickly added the qualifier “when I’m running as a Republican.”
