RFK Jr. Accused of Pressuring Libertarian in Key Iowa Race
Libertarian Marco Battaglia, vying for Iowa’s 3rd District, says Rep. Zach Nunn privately pressed him to quit and that Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. participated in a follow‑up call; Battaglia was later removed from the ballot for using a non‑legal name and plans to appeal. Nunn’s camp denies any inducement, while Kennedy has stepped up involvement in battleground races, potentially affecting a close contest Democrats are targeting.
