NYT: RFK Jr. expected to announce Nicole Shanahan as running mate | CNN Politics
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is expected to announce attorney and entrepreneur Nicole Shanahan as his running mate Tuesday, The New York Times reported, citing two people close to the campaign.
IIRC (I need to research deeper) there needs to be a 15% voter support for a candidate to get into the national debate against RvD
This is decided by the parties IIRC.
I thought it was 5% until Gary Johnson hit that quota & then it magically changed to 15% according to the claims I found.
I recall a 5% number, though cannot recall if that was the debate threshold until 2016, or if that was the percentage required to get federal funds for party advertising via taxpayer dollars.
edit: That said, I wonder if RFK Jr will be able to get that 15%
Hes been between 15 and 20 percent for months.
Boom! Split the Democrat vote like Perrot did for good Republicans in 92.
This is fantastic.
