Judge Bars RFK Jr. from NY Ballot

A New York judge has ruled that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. falsely claimed a New York residence on nominating petitions for his presidential bid, invalidating his ballot access in the state. Judge Christina Ryba's decision, which may lead to challenges in other states, stated that Kennedy's claimed address was a 'sham' to maintain voter registration while living in California. Kennedy's campaign, which plans to appeal, criticized the ruling as partisan and undemocratic. The Democratic-aligned PAC Clear Choice Action backed the lawsuit, asserting Kennedy's actions undermined election law. Despite this setback, Kennedy insists he will continue his efforts to qualify for the ballot nationwide.
