The former environmental lawyer filed a lawsuit in Wisconsin on September 3, as he attempted to be wiped off the ticket.

But on Monday, Dane County Circuit Judge Stephen Ehlke denied the request to erase his name from swing state’s’s ballot, ruling that only death can wipe a candidate from the ballot.

“The bottom line here is that Mr Kennedy has no one to blame but himself if he didn’t want to be on the ballot,” the judge said.

..., ruling that only death can wipe a candidate from the ballot.

With his astonishing lack of empathy, I can almost imagine Felon Drink Bleach casting a pleading, nodding glance at Brain Worm Guy.

Lol, I bet that actually would happen. But Brain Worm Guy has even more life stamina than trump, I don't know how these guys stay alive with all of their health issues.

With Trump being Putin's favorite candidate I would certainly stay away from windows if I was Brain Worm Guy.

Poor Russia, their morons are too stupid to get out of each other's way.

The problem with useful idiots is that they are still idiots.

Fuck that guy. The Monday after he suspended his campaign, he filed paperwork in Kentucky to get on the ballot there.

Can anybody explain what's going on to a non US person? I thought Vance was colisted with Trump. Can bad guys team up like that? This shit is more confusing than your wrestling shows at this point...

Vance is together with trump running as his second. Kennedy was an independent running against trump and then joined him, but didn't file his withdrawal soon enough so he's still on the election ballot as an option running against trump. Basically, you can vote for him in a few states which might keep his followers from swapping with him and costing the conservatives the state.

Right! RFK has announced he's not in the race anymore, but in practice he still is, here. That makes more sense, thanks!
