RFK Jr. qualifies for Hawaii ballot

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will appear as a presidential candidate in Hawaii after gathering enough voter signatures to qualify for the state ballot.
Kennedy’s campaign announced Thursday that it exceeded the required threshold to be a 2024 candidate for the “We The People” party, certified by the Hawaii Office of Elections.
The third party is expected to nominate Kennedy for the White House as an option in November, the campaign announced.
“When I declared my independence from the two-party Washington establishment and announced my campaign for President, I knew it would be an all-out fight,” Kennedy wrote in a campaign fundraising email with the subject line “Exciting Ballot Update.”
“I knew the Democrat and Republican establishments would stop at nothing to try and block my campaign every step of the way,” he wrote while soliciting campaign donations.
Hawaii is the third state for which Kennedy’s team has confirmed meeting the election signature requirements, joining New Hampshire and Utah.
The lawyer and independent contender has stated a goal of reaching all state ballots. D.C. American Values, the super PAC behind Kennedy, additionally said this week that it has collected the requisite number of signatures for Kennedy in Georgia and Arizona. A spokesperson for Kennedy’s campaign did not independently verify the signature tally for those two states.
