I fail to see how someone named “Bobby Kennedy” would take votes away from Republicans, haha.
This is all speculation. If a voter didn't believe there was anything wrong with RFK, and also believed TDS lies, and was anti-VAX, maybe. He would probably get a few votes.
You're probably an older Republican, like me and many at FR.
I wonder how many younger voters even know who JFK was, or anything about the history of the Kennedy family.
Nobody thinks he’s like his father, which is why his family and Democrats in general have consistently opposed him. The poll indications that he takes more voters from Trump than Harris aren’t surprising.
Remember that John Kennedy is a Republican Senator from Louisiana. Republicans had no problem electing him.
