RFK Jr. Asks Supreme Court to Restore His Name on New York Ballot

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s campaign is asking the U.S. Supreme Court to put his name back on New York’s presidential ballot after a lower court disqualified him.

Kennedy, an independent, announced on Aug. 23 that he was suspending his campaign and endorsing former President Donald Trump, a Republican.

Although he has tried to remove his name from swing state ballots since Aug. 23, Kennedy has left his name on the ballot in some other states. He said he is doing this in a longshot bid to secure the presidency in a possible so-called contingent election that would put the presidency in the hands of the U.S. House of Representatives in the event of an electoral college deadlock.

“If you do vote for me, and neither of the candidates wins 270 electoral votes, which is quite possible—in fact, today our polling shows them tying at 269-269—I could conceivably still end up in the White House in a contingent election,” Kennedy has said.
