On September 10, the New York State Court of Appeals, the highest state court, refused to hear Cartwright v Kennedy. This is the case in which the lower state courts had ruled that Kennedy can’t be on the ballot because he didn’t really live at the address he listed on his declaration of candidacy.

Kennedy has a case in federal court in New York, but if he doesn’t win that, New York will be the only state in the nation with only two presidential candidates’ names on the November 2024 ballot, something that the New York newspapers have not mentioned. Kennedy is on in Illinois, and many candidates are on in Tennessee, and Chase Oliver is on the ballot in the other 47 states, along with many other presidential candidates in most cases. Oliver is not on in the District of Columbia either, but Kennedy is.
