Liberal Michigan Supreme Court Rules RFK Jr. Must Stay on Ballot Despite Endorsing Trump

The Michigan Supreme Court, with a liberal majority, has ruled that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. must remain on the state's ballot for the upcoming election despite suspending his presidential campaign and endorsing Donald Trump. This decision reverses a previous Court of Appeals ruling and has sparked controversy, with some arguing it disenfranchises voters. In contrast, the North Carolina Supreme Court has upheld a ruling to remove Kennedy from the ballot, citing the impracticality of reprinting ballots. The vote was 4-3. These legal battles come as Kennedy secures a spot on the Maryland ballot and continues to support Trump.
