The Nevada State Democratic Party is leading a lawsuit to prevent Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from appearing on the Nevada ballot as an independent candidate in the upcoming presidential election. The lawsuit argues that Kennedy, who is still a registered Democrat, is legally barred from running as an independent. Democrats hope this legal challenge, expected to be filed later today, will serve as a template for other states. The party contends that Kennedy's candidacy could act as a spoiler in the election.
