Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has taken a significant step towards gaining ballot access in Louisiana by submitting the necessary paperwork, as indicated on the Secretary of State's website.
Independent presidential candidates like Kennedy are required to pay a $500 fee to apply for ballot access in Louisiana, without the need to submit signatures.
Efforts to confirm the status of Kennedy's petition with the Louisiana Secretary of State's office are currently underway.
So far, Kennedy has successfully qualified for the ballot in 11 states, including Michigan, North Carolina, California, Utah, Hawaii, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Minnesota, Tennessee, South Carolina, and Delaware.
His campaign has made progress in 29 states, either by gaining ballot access, submitting paperwork, or completing signature collection.
It is important to note that Kennedy is striving to secure ballot access in all 50 states. However, Democrats are actively working to impede his efforts by filing legal challenges in multiple states in an attempt to invalidate his ballot petitions.
