In New York major party candidates automatically appear on the ballot, but minor party candidates must collect 45,000 voter signatures by petition in order to qualify. Kennedy, who has withdrawn from the race and backed Donald Trump, gathered more than 100,000 valid signatures.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Friday allowed New York to block former-presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from the state’s 2024 general election ballot.

In New York, major party candidates automatically appear on the ballot, but minor party candidates must collect 45,000 voter signatures by petition in order to qualify. In this case, Kennedy gathered more than 100,000 valid signatures and was added to the ballot by the Board of Elections this past May.

Kennedy, however, did not use the address where he lives with his wife in Los Angeles. Instead he used the address where he rents a room from a childhood friend in New York. Although he is registered to vote at the New York address, he concedes he has stayed there overnight on only"one occasion.
