The effort by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to siphon votes from Vice President Kamala Harris and boost them for former President Donald Trump hit a couple of snags on Friday.
Since Kennedy, a nearly lifelong Democrat, said in August he will mostly suspend his independent bid for president and endorse Trump, he has been trying to get his name on ballots in New York and off of ballots in swing states, including Wisconsin.
Even though Kennedy has gathered over 100,000 signatures, per Politico, the U.S. Supreme Court sided with Democratic operatives who claimed he fudged his residency on the petition New Yorkers signed onto.
Kennedy used a New York address where he rents a room but the lower court ruled it was not a valid residence, given he lives primarily in Los Angeles.
