by Matthew Russell Lee, Patreon Book Substack

SDNY COURTHOUSE, Sept 9 –  After suspending his campaign in ten states and endorsing Donald Trump, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. being restored to the ballot in New York State was argued on September 4 before U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York Judge Andrew L. Carter. Inner City Press was there, thread:

All rise! 

Team Kennedy lawyer: When Ohio knocked John Anderson off the ballot, the Supreme Court reversed it...

NYS lawyer: He is not trying to win - so no irreparable harm  Judge: I'll be right back.

 Judge returns and says, "Obviously I'll have to take this under advisement. I'll get a decision out."

On September 8, Judge Carter issued a text-only order directly that an issue of class action or multiple plaintiffs be clarified to him by Monday, September 9 at noon - more on X for subscribers here and Substack here

On September 9, the joint report said "Plaintiffs intend to move for leave to amend the First Amended Complaint to indicate that Mr. Rose represents a class of similarly situated voters, including voters who support independent presidential candidates other than Mr. Kennedy. Plaintiffs intend to file this motion by 5pm, September 9. At this time, Defendants intend to oppose the proposed motion for leave to amend the First Amended Complaint" and filing on Patreon here.
