Here’s more from the AP:
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has filed a lawsuit in Wisconsin trying to get his name removed from the battleground state’s presidential ballot after the state elections commission voted to keep him on it.
Kennedy suspended his campaign in August and endorsed Republican candidate Donald Trump. Kennedy said he would try to get his name removed from ballots in battleground states, while telling his supporters that they could continue to back him in the majority of states where they are unlikely to sway the outcome.
Kennedy also filed a lawsuit in neighboring Michigan but a judge ruled Tuesday that he must remain on the ballot. A lawsuit filed Friday in North Carolina seeking his removal from the ballot is pending.
Kennedy argued in the Wisconsin lawsuit filed Tuesday in Dane County Circuit Court that third party candidates are discriminated against because state law treats Republicans and Democrats running for president differently.
Republicans and Democrats have until 5 p.m. on the first Tuesday in September before an election to certify their presidential nominee. Independent candidates like Kennedy can only withdraw before the Aug. 6 deadline for submitting nomination papers.
Both Michigan and Wisconsin are playing partisan politics with putting his name on the ballot after he dropped out. I do hope he wins the Wisconsin lawsuit but given how Michigan is going, it looks like the odds might be stacked against him.
