The United States Supreme Court has ruled on RFK Jr’s desire to remove his name from swing states where his inclusion on the ballot would be a “spoiler” in an election in which he is no longer a contender — having thrown his endorsement behind President Trump.  Just a short time ago, the ruling came down as “denied”. BREAKING: The Supreme Court has just declined to remove RFK Jr’s name from ballots in Michigan and Wisconsin.pic.twitter.com/ljChf6aiOK — Jesse Morgan (@Jesse_Morgan_) October 29, 2024 Here’s the ruling, denying both appeals for having his name removed from the Wisconsin and Michigan ballots.  According to a Fox News report, RFK Jr. specifically did not want his name to create a “spoiler” situation in battle ground states. The U.S. Supreme Court has denied separate appeals by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to remove his name from the ballots in Wisconsin and Michigan – a move supported by former President Trump. The longshot independent presidential candidate has been trying to get his name off ballots in key battleground states since he suspended his campaign in August and endorsed Trump. When he suspended his campaign, Kennedy said he planned to keep his name on the ballot in safe Democratic and Republican states, but didn’t want to be a spoiler in battleground states. The Supreme Court has ruled that RFK Jr. will appear on battleground ballots despite suspending his campaign. https://t.co/Kxxj0cQvuR — CNN Breaking News (@cnnbrk) October 29, 2024 According to the above CNN report, the decision came down from the Supreme Court without further explanation, though as you could see in the image of the denied appeal above, Justice Gorsuch did dissent in the Michigan case, citing legal precedent in various cases. Kennedy, who left the presidential race in August and endorsed Trump, urged the Supreme Court in an emergency appeal to force the states to yank his name from the ballots. But state election officials countered that early and absentee voting in the states was already well underway. In other words, they said, it was too late. The Supreme Court handed down its decision without further explanation, which is common on its emergency docket. Justice Neil Gorsuch, a member of the court’s conservative wing, dissented in the Michigan case. At the center of Kennedy’s case in Michigan and Wisconsin was an argument that the states were violating his First Amendment rights by compelling his speech by forcing him to suggest to voters that he is still a candidate. Michigan told the Supreme Court this week that over 1.5 million voters had already returned absentee ballots with Kennedy’s name listed as an option on them and that another 263,000 residents had voted early. “This election is not merely ‘imminent,’ it is already underway, and voters are already voting,” Michigan officials had told the Supreme Court. My guess is with the continuing groundswell of support that President Trump is receiving, even from former democrats who have gone on the warpath for President Trump after tiring of the corruption and lies of the democratic party, this ruling will likely not make a difference once the votes are tallied. Nevertheless, with a week to go, there are still plenty of votes to count and those who will wait until Election Day to cast their ballots in both swing states.
