The Kennedy campaign announced on Saturday that it has submitted more than double the required number of signatures to qualify Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Nicole Shanahan for the state ballot in Alabama, Arizona, and Montana.
In a press release over the weekend, the Kennedy campaign reported gathering and submitting 110,000 signatures in Arizona on Friday, 15,500 signatures in Alabama on Thursday, and 11,000 signatures in Montana on Wednesday. To qualify for the ballot in each respective state, independent presidential candidates must submit 42,303 valid signatures in Arizona, 5,000 in Alabama, and 5,000 in Montana.
The campaign also claims that it has collected more signatures than any presidential candidate in American history, referencing a one million signature milestone it accomplished in July.
According to the campaign, the Kennedy-Shanahan ticket is now officially on the ballot in 22 states, with signatures submitted for verification in 21 additional states, now including Alabama, Arizona, and Montana. The campaign also claims to have collected enough signatures for ballot access in four other states. The remaining four where ballot access efforts are still underway include Wyoming, Mississippi, Kentucky, and Rhode Island. However, it’s worth noting that this list does not account for any pending challenges to the campaign’s announced ballot access in certain areas.
If it retained the names and contact info, that’s a serious donor/activist base.
Doubtless the party zanies will say he doesn’t have enough.
RFKJR should add ballot access to his platform if he hasn’t already…
