Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will not appear as a candidate for president on New York’s ballot after the Supreme Court declined to restore his name.
Kennedy was excluded from the state’s ballot after lower courts determined the independent candidate falsely claimed residency there because his Katonah, N.Y., address was not his fixed and permanent residency.
His attorneys argued in court filings that taking him off the ballot would deprive his New York supporters of their right to cast their votes for him, noting that the lower courts did not find that anyone was “misled.”
“The address on Kennedy’s petition was and is entirely immaterial — both to voters and to New York,” his attorneys wrote in their request, also noting that the independent candidate had rented a room in the home of a childhood friend and stayed there overnight on one occasion.
