Michigan Supreme Court Rules RFK Jr
The Michigan Supreme Court has ruled that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will remain on the state’s presidential ballot for the upcoming 2024 election, despite his withdrawal from the race and endorsement of Donald Trump.
Kennedy had attempted to remove his name to avoid siphoning votes from Trump in the battleground state but was blocked by the state’s election laws.
Kennedy’s efforts to withdraw were initially supported by a Michigan Court of Appeals ruling, but the Supreme Court reversed that decision. The court ruled that Kennedy failed to demonstrate an entitlement to such relief, emphasizing Michigan’s law,
which restricts candidates from withdrawing once they’ve been nominated by a minor party. Kennedy had been selected as the candidate for the Natural Law Party in Michigan.
This ruling allows Michigan’s election officials to move forward with printing ballots, ensuring absentee ballots will meet federal deadlines. The decision is seen as a significant development in a key swing state, with potential implications for the outcome of the presidential election(WCMU Public Radio)(POLITICO).
