Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has now reportedly been officially recognized as a potential contender for the 2024 presidential election in the crucial state of Michigan, according to an announcement made by his team on Thursday.
Kennedy receives backing from the Natural Law Party in Michigan, which actively gathered signatures and completed necessary documentation to endorse his independent campaign for the presidency.
Michigan is currently the most significant state that Kennedy has successfully met the requirements for, with slightly over six months remaining until Election Day.
With many observers believing the state may hold the key to victory for both Trump and Biden.
He has garnered sufficient backing to make appearances in states such as New Hampshire and Nevada, which are also regarded as swing states.
However, the inclusion of Michigan amplifies the gravity of Kennedy’s endeavor.
Both the Democratic and Republican parties are seeking to include Michigan in their political alliances in the Midwest region.
President Biden became victorious in the state during the 2020 election, defeating former President Trump.
However, the current officeholder has experienced a decline in popularity in that particular region throughout the current election cycle.
Kennedy’s campaign aims to collect signatures in all 50 states before their respective deadlines, while experts suggest that he just requires a few crucial battleground states to potentially alter the Election Day result.
According to the campaign, the environmental lawyer has already obtained qualifications for nine states, including North Carolina, Iowa, Nebraska, Hawaii, Utah, and Idaho.
