RFK Jr.'s Super PAC to Spend $15 Million for Ballot Access in 10 States

Kennedy's campaign also launches grassroots effort to gather signatures, while challenging Utah's ballot submission deadline as unconstitutional.

  • Robert F. Kennedy Jr., running as an independent candidate for the 2024 presidential race, is backed by a super PAC, American Values 2024, which plans to spend $10 to $15 million to get him on the ballot in 10 key states.
  • The states targeted by the super PAC are Arizona, California, Colorado, Georgia, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Nevada, New York, and Texas, which represent about half of the signatures Kennedy needs to get on the ballot nationwide.
  • The super PAC is also challenging the state of Utah's January 2024 deadline for candidates to submit signatures to appear on November's ballot, arguing it is unconstitutional.
  • Kennedy's campaign is also launching a grassroots effort to gather signatures, a different approach from the usual practice of independent candidates paying companies millions of dollars for this task.
  • Kennedy's entry into the race has raised concerns among both Democrats and Republicans, who fear his campaign could siphon votes away from their candidates.
