Summary
The U.S. Supreme Court has denied Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s appeal to be reinstated on New York’s election ballot for the upcoming presidential election. This decision upholds previous rulings by lower courts that determined Kennedy had falsely claimed residency in New York, which was a requirement for his candidacy.
Kennedy, who had suspended his presidential campaign in August and endorsed former President Donald Trump, sought to remain on the ballot in New York despite the challenges. His legal team argued that the residency requirement imposed by New York law was unconstitutional and that voters deserved the right to choose him. However, the Supreme Court’s brief order, issued without comment, leaves intact the lower court’s decision that Kennedy’s listed address did not qualify as his permanent residence. This ruling reflects ongoing legal disputes surrounding Kennedy’s candidacy, as he has simultaneously attempted to remove his name from ballots in battleground states to avoid being a spoiler for Trump.
