An appeals court in North Carolina has ruled that Robert F. Kennedy Jr.'s name should be removed from mail-in ballots. MSNBC's Trymaine Lee reports on how this ruling will cause a delay in the start of the state's voting season.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will be removed from ballots in Michigan and North Carolina, two key battleground states in the 2024 presidential election, after state appeals courts ruled in his favor on Friday. The rulings have delayed the mailing of absentee ballots in North Carolina, and it may also affect mail-in voting in Michigan, where the deadline to send out ballots for military and overseas voters is Sept. 21.
Karen Brinson Bell, the executive director of North Carolina's election board, previously estimated that it could take two weeks to reprint ballots at the cost of hundreds of thousands of dollars, The Associated Press reported. In Michigan, a state appeals court similarly ruled on Friday that Kennedy’s name should be stricken from the ballot, reversing a lower court’s earlier decision.
