Former presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy said he would be against any effort to remove Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from the ballot.

Ramaswamy gained ground early in the Republican primary before falling behind and dropping out, endorsing former President Donald Trump instead. Despite his backing of Trump, Ramaswamy expressed support for Kennedy to appear on the ballot, reasoning that it would benefit Republicans in November.

“What we need this November is a decisive moral mandate, a landslide of Reagan 1980, 1984 proportions, and I think we have an opportunity to do it,” Ramaswamy said. “And if RFK being in this race helps that, you know what, I think that could be a good thing for this country, and I’m against any Democratic effort to try to remove him or keep him off the ballot as they will try to do.”

Kennedy originally joined the 2024 race as a Democrat in the primary against President Joe Biden but later became an independent. His syncretic stances have split analysts on whether he would take away votes from Biden or Trump, but some, such as Trump himself, believe Kennedy’s inclusion hurts Biden worse.

RFK Jr. recently announced his running mate, the San Francisco lawyer Nicole Shanahan.

Kennedy was previously floated as a possible running mate to Trump before the former president publicly shot down the possibility in a Truth Social post.
