Andrew Yang recently left the Democratic Party and has set up his own Forward Party.
Regarding the 2024 presidential election, the Forward party's website says:
Will there be a Forward candidate for President in 2024?
It’s too soon to tell, but if there is demand for a third party candidate, the Forward Party may look to address it. The Forward Party may hold its own primary process to nominate a candidate
The 2024 US Presidential election
Consider the scenario where Joe Biden is the Democratic candidate, Donald Trump is the Republican candidate, and Andrew Yang is the Forward Party candidate.
By the time of the 2024 presidential election, Biden will be 81, Trump will be 78, and Yang will be 49. Biden and Trump already both suffer from age-related cognitive deficits (if you don't believe me, go on YouTube, watch some of the latest performances, and contrast them with TV performances they gave in the 1980s or 1990s) and will no doubt be looking even older and more tired in 3 years than they do now. By contrast, Yang will be in the prime age to be a politician, and he'll look young, fresh and full of energy.
Furthermore, both Trump and Biden will be known quantities, having each been president for 4 years. America's problems weren't fixed under Trump, and it doesn't look (at least to me) like Biden will fix many of them either. Yang would thus be facing 2 senile geriatrics with a track record of failure, in a polarised climate where most voters don't like the Democrats, and most voters also don't like the Republicans.
Many voters will think: "Trump was president for 4 years, and my life didn't improve, Biden was president for 4 years and my life still didn't improve. If Yang was president, he'd give me a $1000 a month UBI, and maybe my life would improve."
Yang's prospects for success
The best result for a 3rd party in recent US Presidential election history was in 1992 when Ross Perot got 19% of the vote.
If Yang does run as a 3rd party candidate in 2024, he probably won't win, because of the gerrymanders that are the electoral college and FPTP, both of which are designed to thwart the will of the people. But he'd probably do better than 3rd party candidates have done in recent years: running against Biden and Trump, I'd give him a 50% changer of getting a higher voter share than Perot did in 1992, and a 5% chance of winning.
The key thing that has to happen is states passing ranked-choice voting and open primaries. Once that happens, the “spoiler” effect and the “wasted vote” debate are ended in those areas. The more areas that pass these changes in 2022, the higher likelihood that Yang could run and win in 2024
