RFK Jr. Could Be Forced To Collect Nevada Signatures Again After Botching Forms
HuffPost
The independent presidential candidate is set to unveil his pick for a running mate at an event in Oakland.
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s bid to appear on the ballot in Nevada could be in jeopardy after he failed to include a potential vice president on his filing documents.
CBS first reported the potential snag on Monday, just a day before Kennedy is expected to announce his running mate on Tuesday at an event in Oakland, California. Nevada’s guidelines for presidential candidates require independent petitions to include the names of both a presidential and vice presidential pick before they begin collecting signatures in order for them to be valid. The news outlet confirmed those rules with the Nevada secretary of state’s office.
CBS obtained documents from the office that only display Kennedy’s name, which would appear to be a violation of state statutes.
The Kennedy campaign immediately lambasted the reports and accused the Democratic National Committee of conspiring to keep him off the ballot. There is no evidence to back up those claims.
“This is the epitome of corruption,” Paul Rossi, a lawyer for the campaign, said in a statement. “After successfully collecting all of the signatures we need in Nevada, the DNC Goon Squad and their lackeys in the Nevada Secretary of State’s office are outright inventing a new requirement for the petition with zero legal basis.”
