Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been disqualified from appearing on New York's general election ballot after a judge ruled Monday that he falsely claimed a New York residence on his nominating petitions, leading to their invalidation.
Judge Christina Ryba ruled that Kennedy's claim of a New York address as his "place of residence" was a "false statement," concluding that it was evident he had no plans to move back to the Empire State and said he only listed the location for political gain. Ryba's ruling is expected to be appealed by the Aug. 15 deadline. If her ruling is upheld, it would bar Kennedy from the New York ballot and potentially spark challenges in other states where he used a New York suburban address to collect signatures.
"The overwhelming credible evidence introduced at trial established that Kennedy's connections with the [New York] address existed only on paper and were maintained for the sole purpose of maintaining his voter registration and political standing in the State of New York," Ryba wrote.
Last week in court, Kennedy testified that he has considered New York his home since childhood and intended to return. He explained that he temporarily moved to California in 2014 to live with his wife and that he is currently renting a room at a woman's home in New York.
Barbara Moss, the woman who owns the home, testified that Kennedy paid her $500 a month for the room. She added that Kennedy had spent only one night at the home and that she received the first rental payment from him on May 20 of this year.

Just a quick reminder on the data that aligns around Robert F Kennedy Jr and the 2024 race.
Again, I will state emphatically, as I have from the outset, that almost all of RFK Jr’s support comes from voters aligned with Donald Trump. RFK Jr is the IC splitter. As a consequence, my long-held suspicion is that RFK Jr is working for the Intelligence Community. In July of 2023, during his interview with James O’Keefe, my suspicion became a working thesis {SOURCE}. That interview was full of tradecraft.
Later, in October of 2023, RFK Jr admitted his appearance in the race was intended more toward taking votes from President Trump than it was taking votes from Joe Biden {SOURCE}. General election polling that surfaced thereafter, confirmed what RFK Jr had stated; he pulls more votes from Donald Trump than from Democrats {SOURCE}.
In a transparent attempt to stop the black voter gains to Trump, RFK Jr took the position of full support for black reparations {SOURCE}. Few people saw that for what it was. Kennedy trying to mitigate the damage that Donald Trump does to the Democrat coalition.
Every move that RFK JR makes is clouded in plausible deniability. However, if you look at the sum total of all the policy moves together, you can clearly see his target is to fracture the Trump support. {SOURCE} The Silicon Valley types were solidly in the RFK Jr camp, until the assassination attempt against President Trump failed. Almost immediately, they jumped in unison from Kennedy to Trump.
I’ve been watching this RFK Jr pattern as I did with the Ron DeSantis background operation in 2021. There are multiple aspects in the support network that parallel each other.
Now Politico is reporting that Joe Rogan and Russell Brand have endorsed RFK Jr.
POLITICO – Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. earned endorsements from top podcasters Joe Rogan and Russell Brand in the presidential race.
Kennedy has devoted the majority of his media strategy to alternative and independent creators, and the investment is paying off with endorsements in the critical last days of the campaign. (more)
The datapoint of value is not that Joe Rogan endorsed RFK Jr. Seriously, that part I don’t care about, and also if true tradecraft is deployed, there is going to be some kind of plausible deniability retraction – as there always is. The point to note is that Politico is quick to the typeset to tell everyone that Rogan and Brand are endorsing Robert Kennedy Jr.
It’s all sketchy, but one aspect is clear. RFK Jr is in the race to pull support away from Donald Trump.
Take that overlay, add all of the datapoints that indicated RFK Jr had an ulterior motive within this election; then consider that RFK Jr knew Biden was going to be removed. Apply that view and perspective in hindsight toward the visible data points.
Does that recording of the phone call with Donald Trump look different, if RFK Jr was intentionally working an IC operation and knew that Joe Biden was going to exit before the convention?
The Kennedy who sounds like Katherine Hepburn is way beyond sketchy.
It’s not that he wasn’t a resident, it’s that he lied about it. If he’d given a legitimate out of state address this likely wouldn’t have been an issue.
Here’s hoping.
The NY2020 steal must have been huge for them to go to these lengths in 2024.
Humm, I thought the Rules didn't apply to any Kennedy family member.
H->! was not really a resident either.
Yeah, but only for New York and Massachusetts.
"On the other hand, this bizarre Arkansas Chicago woman …"
Fixed it.
She’s WEIRD to boot.
But did his father state that he lived in NY and rent a room but not live in it to make it appear he lived in NY?
Hahahahahaha!
“Kennedy testified that he has considered New York his home since childhood and intended to return. He explained that he temporarily moved to California in 2014 to live with his wife and that he is currently renting a room at a woman’s home in New York.”
So, he was living with his wife in California “temporarily” since 2014 and just decided he was homesick for his childhood home and rented a room that he has only spent one night in since renting. I’ve heard worse lies but not many.
It’s not about being a resident of New York state that’s the issue. The issue is RFK Jr. fraudulently claiming NY as his state of residence, when it isn’t.
Democracy!
Is this fool smart enough to tell his voters to vote for Trump where he’s not on the ballot?
And she lives in the house. There’s nothing wrong with moving to another state. Trump did it.
Also it sounds like he “temporarily” moved to California ten years ago but has been voting as a NY resident. Uh, that’s voter fraud.
Actually if he were the Democrat nominwe this would never be an issue. No way no how.
Agreed—the Democrat judges would never touch “family”.
Does he want them to?
THIS from the state that allowed Killary Clinton?
