RFK Jr.'s path to North Carolina ballot blocked by Democrats

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s push to gain ballot access in North Carolina was blocked by three Democrats on the state’s election board.

North Carolina State Board of Elections Chairman Alan Hirsch, along with members Jeff Carmon and Siobhan O’Duffy Millen, voted Wednesday to deny Kennedy’s We the People Party access to the state’s presidential ballot. A recording of the Election Board’s meeting obtained by the Washington Examiner showed the Democrats were “concerned about what people were told as they were thinking about signing the petition.”
