I know the electorate who would vote for him are certainly idiots, but even if he's on the ballot, surely they're following his moves and would know he's no longer running and either vote for Dump or not vote at all? I guess this doesn't seem like such a big deal to me. If they love him soooo much, and he wasn't on the ballot, they'll just write him in. Same diff.

"They’ve already printed a fuckton of ballots. They’re supposed to do it again because this human zero got backstage at a Trump rally?"

Ouch.

We should set up border checkpoints, in case people are crossing state lines to vote for RFK.

Not that our state matters in the grand scheme of things, but he's still on the ballot here in Oregon. And there are plenty of folks in Eugene who think he is still the guy who was a good environmental lawyer once upon a time....

I’m curious whether the obstinate loons who planned to vote for RFKJ will do it anyway if they know he’s not really running anymore? Or will they be confused by seeing his name on their ballots?

Hey! He meant to do that. Come on, why do you expect the natural, chosen leaders of men to actually know How the Fuck Anything Works! There's interns for that trivia. He's a big vision guy, broad strokes, 30,000 feet above the peons. Wow, you could insert all of the names of the GOP in Congress and probably every CEO and this would apply. Just ask Delta Airlines

Seems almost a certainty to me that when ( FSM willing ) the PAB loses the "rigged and stollen" election, Brainworm Kennedy still being on the ballot is one of the things he claims is part of the Deep State conspiracy that interfered with his certain landslide victory.

"They did it on purpose to fool people into throwing away their vote! That they wouldn't have counted anyway, because all the voting machines were hacked by Hugo Chavez!!"

Fine if he needs a new excuse for losing. Let him say whatever he likes, as long as he’s not saying it from the White House.

Back when I was an election inspector for my local voting district, after we totaled all the votes up that night, there were a few write-ins for President like Hillary Clinton and… Ralph Nader. In 2008! They were counted, of course, just like everyone else’s votes.

So it wouldn’t surprise me if the few RFK Jr. voters that might put down their avocado toast and meander over to their polling station on Election Day would write in his name. That is, if he’s not on the ballot (like in New York).

Oh by the way, Obama won our precinct that day. It certainly put me in a good mood when I later got home to find out that he had won the whole shebang.

Amanda Marcotte at Salon with a dose of reality. We have a problem in this country with radicalized conspiracy theorists. And sadly no real solution that I can see.
