A judge ruled Monday that independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s name should not appear on New York’s ballot, saying that he falsely claimed a New York residence on nominating petitions despite living in California.
The scion of the famed Democratic political dynasty vowed to appeal, dismissing the ruling as partisan. If the judge’s decision is upheld, it would not only keep Kennedy off the ballot in New York but could also lead to challenges in other states where he used an address in New York City’s suburbs to gather signatures.
The two party system sucks.
Agreed, but that won’t change until first past the post is changed and honestly, third party candidates should stop moonshotting for president. Build up the third party in local elections first.
Libertarians do run for other offices beside President. People get all bent out of shape when you talk about third parties because they are already on team blue or team red. Both team blue and team red want to keep the monopoly going.
Explain. What party was the judge representing when Kenedy lied on a government form?
If he lied, which probably mean he lied under oath, he should be prosecuted.
