Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. filed a lawsuit Tuesday night asking a federal court to prohibit Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson from including his name on the November ballot.
Kennedy’s complaint came at about 10:30 p.m. Tuesday in the Eastern District of Michigan, as the first presidential debate between Democrat Kamala Harris and Republican Donald Trump was concluding in Philadelphia.
The suit, which attempts to move the question to the federal court system, followed the Michigan Supreme Court ruling on Monday that Kennedy, as the nominee of the Natural Law Party in the state, should be on the ballot, despite his decision to suspend his campaign and endorse Trump.
“Defendant’s relentless and unauthorized attempt to have Mr. Kennedy convey a message to Michigan voters he insists on not conveying not only harms Mr. Kennedy but also harms every citizen in Michigan,” Kennedy’s lawyer Brandon Debus wrote of Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson.
