A judge in Albany, New York is currently deliberating on whether independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. falsely claimed to reside in the state, as he seeks to secure a spot on the November ballot. The trial, which took place in Albany, ended without an immediate decision from Justice Christina Ryba. It is anticipated that any ruling made by the trial judge will be subject to appeal.
The lawsuit, supported by a Democrat-aligned PAC and brought forth by voters, alleges that Kennedy's New York nominating petitions inaccurately listed a residence in the affluent northern suburbs of New York City. The plaintiffs claim that Kennedy has actually been residing in the Los Angeles area since his marriage to actor Cheryl Hines in 2014.
