RFK Loses Appeal To Remove Name From MI Ballot

The Detroit Free Press reports:

A federal judge on Wednesday denied a request from Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., a former independent candidate for president, to have his name removed from Michigan’s Nov. 5 ballot.

According to evidence in the case, 90% of Michigan ballots have already been printed and it would cost at least a half million dollars to reprint them without Kennedy’s name.

Kennedy made the last-ditch appeal to federal court, seeking an injunction against the printing of ballots, after losing in the Michigan Supreme Court.

“Plaintiff is clearly unhappy with the result of the state litigation and only brought these federal claims when the result did not turn in his favor,” the judge added. https://t.co/jHIjrjwkVh
