The Wisconsin Supreme Court has announced that it will hear arguments in the case concerning whether or not Robert F. Kennedy Jr. should be allowed on the state’s ballot for governor. The decision comes after a lower court ruled that Kennedy did not meet the residency requirements to run for governor in the state.
Kennedy, a member of the famous political family, filed a lawsuit challenging the ruling, arguing that he meets the requirements to run for office in Wisconsin. He claims that he has been a resident of the state for over a year and should be allowed to appear on the ballot.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court’s decision to take up the case has sparked debate among legal experts and political observers. Some believe that the court will uphold the lower court’s ruling and prevent Kennedy from appearing on the ballot. Others argue that the court may rule in Kennedy’s favor, allowing him to continue his campaign for governor.
Kennedy’s campaign has gained attention both in Wisconsin and nationwide, with supporters praising his progressive platform and long history of political activism. However, his residency status has been a sticking point in the race, with opponents accusing him of not meeting the requirements to run for office in the state.
The Wisconsin Supreme Court’s decision to hear the case has added a new level of drama to an already contentious race for governor. As arguments are set to begin, all eyes will be on the court to see how they rule on this high-profile case.
