Here is the story from The Washington Post. It may be behind a paywall.
The jist of the story is that the American Values 2024 Super PAC spent $2.4 million to gather signatures in Michigan, Arizona, South Carolina & Georgia, but that none of the signatures will be turned over to the Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. for President Campaign, so as to not appear to be coordinating actions with the Campaign, which would be illegal.
RFK, Jr. has since been nominated for President by the Natural Law Party in Michigan, so his Campaign does not have to petition there. But, the Campaign is planning to redo the Arizona, South Carolina and Georgia petitions. The signature requirements for those three petitions are 34,116 signatures as a new party or about 43,000 as an Independent candidate in Arizona, 10,000 in South Carolina, and 7,500 in Georgia.
Wow. Nearly no lube level of derp.
They didn’t think this through before they got the first set of signatures? Also, why would they have to turn them over to the campaign, as opposed to state election officials?
This is terribly confusing considering that petitions have been collected by PACs in the past. Terribly waste of money. And a terrible look.
Very strange behavior.
ONE MORE REASON TO ABOLISH CAMP FIN *** coordinating actions *** ROT

Simply ludicrous.
As early as February, Third Way was making complaints to the SOS on Arizona, South Carolina, and Georgia.

The article claims that Third Way is a centrist group, but they themselves describe themselves as center-left. Their web site has links to articles “How No Labels was thwarted — and a disaster for democracy was avoided” and “RFK Jr. can’t win. But he and Cornel West could put Trump back in the White House”.
They are tied in with Marc Elias, who was used by the Hillary Clinton campaign to pay for the fake Steele Dossier (i.e. it was reported as legal fees, rather than operations research).
Just because Third Way describes themselves as “left” anything doesn’t mean they are. Personally, I would call them center-right, but “centrist” isn’t too unreasonable.
Anyway, it’s shameful that the corrupt corporate parties (aka uniparty) have made it so difficult for third-party candidates ever since Ross Perot won millions of votes.

Millions wasted complying with censorship and nothing spent for abolition. How’s that make America great for anyone but the fascist ruling elite?
Turd way, centrist or right? Now that’s funny.
