DNC Files FEC Complaint Against RFK Jr.'s Campaign for Election Law Violations
TL;DR
The Democratic National Committee has filed a federal election complaint against Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and a super PAC supporting his independent presidential bid, alleging illegal coordination on a $15 million petition drive to get him on the ballot in key states for President Biden's re-election. The complaint accuses the super PAC of making an in-kind contribution to Kennedy's campaign, violating campaign finance laws. Kennedy, known for his anti-vaccine activism, joined the race as a Democratic challenger before running as an independent. The super PAC's co-chairman dismissed the allegations, while the DNC described the effort as an attempt to subvert election laws.
