Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has filed an official complaint with the Federal Election Commission over his potential exclusion from next month's presidential debate hosted by CNN.
The complaint echoed comments Kennedy made in an exclusive interview with Scripps News one week before the official complaint was filed. "The law in virtually every state provides that the nominee of a state-recognized political party will be allowed ballot access without petitioning," a CNN spokesperson said in a statement."As the presumptive nominees of their parties both Biden and Trump will satisfy this requirement. As an independent candidate, under applicable laws RFK Jr. does not."
