Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is remaining on the ballots in Michigan and Wisconsin.

The Wisconsin Elections Commission voted 5–1 on Aug. 27 to keep Kennedy’s name on the ballot in the state. Commissioners turned down Kennedy’s request to remove his name as an option for voters and approved other third-party candidates, including Jill Stein and Cornel West, as options.
