On September 3, the Michigan Court of Claims rejected an attempt by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., to remove himself from the ballot. He is listed as the Natural Law Party nominee in Michigan. Kennedy had filed the case on August 30.
Here is the opinion in Kennedy v Benson, 24-000138-MB. Thanks to John Smith for the link.
Here is a link to the opinion. https://www.courts.michigan.gov/4a4a11/siteassets/case-documents/opinions-orders/coc-opinions-(manually-curated)/2024/24-000138-mb.pdf
Friends, please go to Kennedy2024.com and contribute so we can appeal this ruling keeping Bobby on the ballot in Michigan as well as the ruling keeping Bobby off the ballot in New York. Bobby has a constitutional right to be on only the state ballots that will not hurt the campaign to which he is now devoting his life.
Cheryl – LOL
I starved to death, remember?
So RFK Jr. Electors would be compelled to vote for him if he were to get the most votes? What if all members of the Natural Law Party refused to serve as Electors if the State of Michigan try to compel them to vote for a candidate who does not want their votes?
This is what fascist ballot access censorship laws are – compulsory democracy, which is not democracy at all but raw fascism.
“Elections are not just games and the Secretary of State is not obliged to honor the whims of candidates for public office.”
Well put.

Cheryl, shouldn’t you be out looking for a good divorce lawyer?
Elections are not just games and the secretary of state cannot just flip-flop based on their own party’s whims, between doing everything in their power to remove a candidate from the ballot and doing everything in their power to keep the same candidate on the ballot.

Firstly, that’s not very nice – but then neither are you.
Secondly, do you actually think Cheryl is Mrs Kennedy née Hines? Surely, there are more productive uses of her time than personally going online to solicit donations. And surely, there are more lucrative places to solicit donations than on BAN.
If “our” Cheryl has anything to do with Cheryl Kennedy-Hines, then it is probably a staffer, or more likely a bot, deputized to post in her name. In which case, why not make it explicitly clear that she is that Cheryl? Because surely that would stand more chance of bringing in donations.
I rather think that BAN Cheryl is making fun of Cheryl Hines Kennedy by pretending to be her. Odds are against her being a Cheryl, and probably even on her being a her.
BAN Cheryl has fundraised aggressively, but without a direct link.
She mentioned having an onlyfans, but didn’t link that either or provide a URL or onlyfans handle.
At one point she said “donate to save my marriage” or words to that effect.
It seems to me that whoever is doing that is probably taking the email solicitations Mrs Kennedy sends to supporters and posting them here copypasta style with links stripped out and, I’m guessing, bimbofying details like having an onlyfans added in, along with “save my marriage,” as a form of parody through exaggeration.
I could be wrong, and maybe it really is Mrs. Kennedy, but I rather doubt it. I could try confirming with her publicist if she responds by claiming it really is her.
Just me,
Re; not just games – who are you quoting? I don’t see the comment above. It’s not in the OP. Something from the court opinion? Removed comment?
Frank, fascism is merely a less extreme form of Marxism, as a practical matter.
Just Me is a troll. Ignore him.
Larry is a troll. Ignore him.
Lovely supporters❤️,
We need your support because we are having a whale of a problem raising funds for our legal fees and I know you could not bear it if New Yorkers could not vote for Bobby and if North Carolinians and Michiganders could.😭
So go to Kennedy2024.com and give till it hurts.🥰
Hugs,😥
Your pal,😘
Cheryl🐻🐻🐻🐳🐳🐳
People, Cheryl is my real mother, not a staffer or bot.
Great news! The extremely generous Richard Winger has announced that he will match all donations @ Kennedy2024 today, September 4, with a donation twice what others are donating. So your beautiful donations will be TRIPLED!!! if you get them in by midnight Pacific Time.

If he cannot withdraw, he might be able to release his electors from their pledges, effectively making them unpledged electors.

Catherine Rose Young, I’m skeptical. If I get curious enough, I’ll contact her publicist for confirmation.
Did your mother really say she has an onlyfans? Did she really say her marriage may be in trouble based on fundraising results?
Granted, Hollywood is deep in the heart of the land of fruits and nuts, so maybe it really is her. But I’ll believe it when I have some solid proof. Perhaps she could record a short video talking about how she posts comments at Ballot Access News, has an onlyfans, and worries her marriage could end if the campaign fundraising does not pick up.
Think about it – if Kennedy cannot withdraw his candidacy from any state ballot, he could release all of his electors from their pledges, making them wildcards in all the states that he is on the ballot. None of them will likely get elected, but they could affect to outcome in those states.
Why is Richard Winger, not Nicole Shanahan, the one offering a donor match? Can we get some confirmation from him that this even true?
Your fundraising trouble must be really bad if he can legally even make that offer.
I’ll be lazy about it for now, but it smells fishy. We’ll see.
Technically whales are mammals, not fish. But by the smell you’d never know it. [Insert mandatory joke about cam whores smelling like fish.]
How gratifying to learn that our host is not a Harris, Trump nor Oliver supporter as so often claimed on BAN, but is instead all in on Bobby-boy’s campaign 🤪
@Walter Ziobro
I was thinking something similar: in states where RFK wishes to withdraw but cannot, he might be able to get electors – whether released from their pledges, or “faithless” nudge nudge wink wink – to instead vote for Trump – or possibly, for anyone but Harris.
@AZ,
How many States becoming real democracies would be _enough_ to justify calling an Article V Convention?
In the last 6 presidential elections, the best the Natural Law party did was 0.66% of the vote with Ralph Nader in 2008. The worst they did was 0.03% of the vote with Walter Brown in 2004. On average, the Natural Law party got 0.16% of the vote in the last 6 elections.
Kennedy will be campaigning for Trump in Michigan. There’s 3 socialist candidates on the Michigan ballot this year (Joseph Kishore, Cornel West, and Jill Stein) plus the Constitution candidate, Randall Terry, and the Libertarian candidate, Chase Oliver.
In the election where the GOP won Michigan with Trump, the Libertarian, Green, and Natural Law parties got a combined 4.7% of the vote. People blame Jill Stein for Trump winning in 2016, but she only got 1.07%. Ralph Nader, who ran for the Green Party in 2000, got 1.99% and the GOP lost that race.
Trump lost 2020. In that race, the Libertarian, Jo Jo only got 1.09% of the vote. The Republicans only won when the Libertarians got 3.59% of the vote in 2016. People assume, in general, that the Libertarians steal votes from the Republicans. In Michigan, though, it seems Libertarians take votes from the Democrats.
Trump got almost the same amount of votes in 2016 that George W. Bush got in 2004. Trump got more votes than any other GOP presidential candidate in Michigan in 2020, getting 14.5% more votes than Bush got in 2004.
With 3 socialist candidates and Chase Oliver taking votes from Kamala and Kennedy endorsing Trump, Kamala is pretty unlikely to win Michigan. Anyone who votes Kennedy in Michigan now was never going to vote for Trump anyways.
Chase Oliver is a communist, so that actually makes four taking away from Harris.
Is your Trump posse big? My Trump posse is bigger! When was the last time you boys killed a nigger?
Quite amazing that the courts are defending the right of the Natural Law Party to have a candidate on the ballot despite them not asking them for this sort of relief. The Natural Law Party didn’t ask the courts to forcible require them to have a candidate of course but that is the result of this decision… a decision about political strategy for a political party is made by a judge now.
Michigan is controlled by insane liberals despite the people being moderate. I think it’s going to backfire hard pretty soon. Detroit, Lansing, and Grand Rapids are the only reason Michigan is blue at all.
JR ASKS-

Jeff, most voters base their votes on things other than ideology.
Cheryl,
Are you actually claiming to be Cheryl Hines Kennedy?
If yes, will your publicist verify this claim if contacted directly?
Did you also make a post on a prior article here alluding to you having an onlyfans account? I’m not asking for a link. It would be sufficient to know whether you said that you do.
Did you make a post on a prior article here saying the fate of your marriage might depend on how well campaign fundraising performs?
Richard Winger,
Someone purporting to be Cheryl Hines Kennedy claims that you are personally offering a 2:1 match for all donations to the RFK JR campaign today.
1) is that true or a lie that you are offering such a match?
2) how can you do that, if it’s true? I’m not tempted to donate, but aren’t there individual contribution limits?
3) Those limits wouldn’t apply to Nicole Shanahan, since she’s on the ticket. Why would or could it be anyone other than her offering a donor match?
