Independent presidential candidate Robert F Kennedy Jr does not meet the legal requirement of a New York resident and therefore cannot be on the state’s election ballot, a judge has ruled.
Kennedy’s claim of a New York address as his “place of residence” on nominating petitions was a “false statement”, said Judge Christina Ryba.
“Given the size and appearance of the spare bedroom as shown in the photographs admitted into evidence, the Court finds Kennedy’s testimony that he may return to that bedroom to reside with his wife, family members, multiple pets, and all of his personal belongings to be highly improbable, if not preposterous,” the judge wrote.
As a result, the petitions were considered invalid. Mr Kennedy has rejected the judge’s ruling and vows to appeal.
“Oh no the joke of a candidate who has actual brain worms can’t legally be on the ballot. What a tragedy this is.”
If 150,000 people want Vermin Supreme on the ballot, even if it’s just a protest against the corrupt, two-party system run by corporate interests, he should be on the ballot.
Well Vermin Supreme could be on the ballot if that were the case, because he probably wouldn’t try to violate the 12 Amendment.
Do you think that is (and should be) the only requirement to get on a presidential ballot?
You are defending a clown. You’re a joke.
