Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will remain on Colorado’s general election ballot after he suspended his campaign and endorsed Republican nominee Donald Trump, Kennedy’s campaign told Colorado election officials Tuesday.
“We are not withdrawing in Colorado,” Kennedy’s campaign told the Colorado Secretary of State’s Office, according to a spokesman. The message added that Kennedy “has encouraged all of his supporters to vote for him in CO!”
The former Democrat appeared Friday alongside Trump in Phoenix, where Kennedy announced he was backing the former president and would withdraw from the ballot in several states where his candidacy could swing the outcome. The Associated Press reported that it was already too late, however, for Kennedy to remove his name from ballots in Michigan, Nevada and Wisconsin.
