Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has submitted over 30,000 signatures to qualify in Colorado as an independent candidate, surpassing the required 12,000 valid signatures for ballot access in the state. This move has sparked confusion as the Libertarian Party of Colorado had previously expressed intentions to nominate Kennedy as its presidential candidate.
The Libertarian Party of Colorado had announced plans to nominate Kennedy earlier this month, citing a partnership where Kennedy pledged to uphold Libertarian values if elected president. However, the party has not yet submitted formal paperwork to the Colorado Secretary of State's office to nominate Kennedy.
