Robert F. Kennedy suspended his longshot presidential campaign in August and endorsed former President Donald Trump.
Washington — The Supreme Court on Tuesday rejected two separate bids by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., to have his name removed from the presidential ballots in Michigan and Wisconsin.In two brief orders, the justices denied the requests from Kennedy to order election officials in Michigan and Wisconsin to take his name off their ballots, even as millions of voters in the two battleground states have already voted early either in-person or by mail.
As in the Wisconsin case, Kennedy told the Supreme Court in a filing that Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson violated his First Amendment rights when she recertified the ballot to list Kennedy as a presidential candidate.'The secretary, by listing Mr. Kennedy on the ballot, is misrepresenting to voters that Mr. Kennedy is qualified and willing to serve the public if elected,' his lawyers wrote.
