RFK Jr. Faces Voter Fraud Allegations Over New York Ballot
The accusations challenge Kennedy's Senate confirmation as Trump's nominee for Health and Human Services Secretary.
- Progressive watchdog group Accountable.US has filed a complaint accusing Robert F. Kennedy Jr. of committing voter fraud during the 2024 presidential election.
- The group alleges Kennedy voted using a New York address that courts had previously ruled was not his legal residence, as he primarily resides in California.
- The complaint cites New York election laws that classify knowingly using a false residence for voter registration or voting as a felony offense.
- Kennedy's confirmation hearings for the role of Health and Human Services Secretary are expected to include scrutiny over these allegations and his controversial anti-vaccine views.
- Trump allies have dismissed the accusations as politically motivated, while Kennedy and his legal team have not yet publicly responded to the claims.
