NC: Elections agency appeals to keep RFK Jr. on ballot

Source: Axios

“North Carolina’s Board of Elections said Friday that it has appealed an order from the state’s Court of Appeals to remove Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from 2024 general election ballots. The move comes hours after the North Carolina appeals court blocked the state from sending out absentee ballots while it considers a lawsuit from the former third-party presidential candidate, who is seeking to remove his name after dropping out of the race. The agency said its staff will work through the weekend to start making the new ballots without Kennedy’s name for the county board of elections to review, per a news release. But the board asked the states’ Supreme Court for an expedited decision so counties don’t spend additional money preparing and printing new ballots if the appeal is successful.” (09/06/24)
