On Wednesday, KTNV Las Vegas reported that Nevada election officials have officially removed Kennedy’s name from the November ballot. This decision comes after Kennedy endorsed Trump following his exit from the race last Friday. Kennedy’s campaign had previously qualified for the ballot, but a public dispute with Democratic Secretary of State Cisco Aguilar, over allegations of failing to comply with state laws when submitting signatures, led to legal challenges. A lawsuit, involving two voters and Secretary Aguilar himself, was filed in an attempt to keep Kennedy off the ballot, and now it seems they have succeeded.
While the removal of Kennedy from the ballot narrows the choices for Nevada voters, Trump and Harris are not the only candidates in the race. Voters will still have the option to cast their vote for the Libertarian, Independent American, and Green parties, as well as the option for “None of these Candidates.” This last option has been increasingly popular among far-left activists disillusioned with Harris and President Biden’s administration, particularly over their stance on Israel’s military actions in Gaza, which some have labeled a “genocide” against Palestinians. During the recent Democratic National Convention in Chicago, protestors threatened to continue boycotting the election if the administration didn’t shift its policy on Israel.
Kennedy’s decision to exit the race and remove his name from ballots doesn’t stop at Nevada. It remains to be seen whether other battleground states will follow suit. However, according to Fox News, Kennedy is unable to remove his name from ballots in critical states like Wisconsin and Michigan. These are states that Trump narrowly won in 2016 but lost in the 2020 election. The presence of Kennedy on these ballots could jeopardize Trump’s chances of regaining these crucial states.
Now part of Trump’s transition team, Kennedy has been actively encouraging his supporters to rally behind Trump. He has made it clear that his continued presence on the ballot in these battleground states could inadvertently hand the election to the Democrats. “In about 10 battleground states where my presence would be a spoiler, I’m going to remove my name, and I’ve already started that process and urge voters not to vote for me,” Kennedy stated in an interview with Fox News. “Our polling consistently showed by staying on the ballot in the battleground states, I would likely hand the election over to the Democrats, with whom I disagree on the most existential issues.”
As the election draws nearer, the stakes continue to rise. With Kennedy’s exit from the race and his endorsement of Trump, the dynamics in these battleground states are shifting rapidly. For Vice President Kamala Harris, who was already facing tight races in key states, the road to victory just became a lot more challenging.

This development underscores the unpredictable nature of the 2024 election and serves as a reminder that in American politics, anything can happen. The removal of Kennedy from the ballot in battleground states like Nevada could be the turning point in an election that was already too close to call.
