RFK Jr. sues Nevada secretary of state over ballot access

Published



Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. filed a lawsuit against Nevada’s secretary of state over his interpretation of state laws regarding ballot access. 

Nevada Secretary of State Francisco Aguilar was named in the lawsuit because of his interpretation of a law that mandates a candidate must have a solidified running mate in their petition to run for office. The interpretation would require the Kennedy campaign, which has vowed to be on the ballot in all 50 states, to start over with its petition in Nevada.
