Kennedy Missed Flight to Testify in Ballot Challenge
JFK Jr's Son Late for Court Appearance by Hours
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. missed his flight to New York, causing him to be late for a court appearance to testify in a challenge against his effort to appear on the state's Democratic primary ballot.
The judge in the case said Kennedy's tardiness was "unacceptable" and that he would not allow him to testify. Kennedy's attorney said his client was "deeply disappointed" by the decision but that he would continue to fight to get on the ballot. Kennedy is running for the Democratic nomination for governor of New York.
The challenge to Kennedy's ballot access petition was filed by a group of Democratic voters who argue that he does not meet the party's residency requirements. Kennedy has lived in California for the past several years, but he says he has maintained a residence in New York.
The judge in the case has not yet ruled on the challenge.Kennedy's campaign has said it is confident that he will ultimately be allowed on the ballot.
Kennedy's Late Arrival Raises Questions
Kennedy's late arrival for his court appearance has raised questions about his commitment to the race. Some Democrats have said that Kennedy is not serious about running for governor and that he is only trying to use the campaign to raise his profile.
Kennedy's campaign has denied these accusations, saying that he is fully committed to the race and that he is confident that he will win the Democratic nomination.
