The Democratic National Convention filed two complaints with the SEC against his campaign for accepting an exorbitant donation of $15 million and a super PAC that backs him, American Values 2024, for not disclosing a $10 million loan that it has repaid 96% of. The loan was from author Gavin de Becker, and the donations were from Timothy Mellon, who is the largest donor this presidential cycle.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen I was a kid, the Democratic Party was at the lead of fighting for voting rights for every American. Now, the Democratic Party is doing everything it can to disenfranchise people and make sure that people can devote for who they want to,\u201d Kennedy said. \u201cUsing litigation against me and \u2014 I\u2019m not a fan of President Trump\u2019s \u2014 but I want to beat him in a fair fight. I don\u2019t want to win because of some spurious legal action that takes him out and removes him from the ballot and deprives Americans and the right to vote for somebody they want to vote for.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>American Values 2024 has helped the campaign collect signatures in several states until the DNC filed its complaints when it stopped. However, one of the states the super PAC collected signatures was Nevada, which now might become invalid because at the time the signatures were collected, Kennedy had not named his running mate Nicole Shanahan. Nevada requires independent candidates to list the entire ticket in order for the signatures gathered under that ticket to qualify.<\/p>\n<p>Still, Kennedy seemed confident in choosing Shanahan as he went on to suggest that she would do very well in a debate against Vice President Kamala Harris. Shanahan is 38 and is \u201cvery smart, very likable\u201d with a \u201ccalm, rational mind\u201d according to Kennedy.<\/p>\n<p><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonexaminer.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CLICK HERE TO READ MORE FROM THE WASHINGTON EXAMINER<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Kennedy campaign has claimed to be eligible for the ballots in Nevada, New Hampshire, and Utah. It took Utah changing its ballot eligibility rules for Kennedy\u2019s name to be on the ballot. Kennedy has threatened further legal action against Nevada should they find his signatures invalid.<\/p>\n<p>Kennedy is one of two independent candidates, the other being activist Dr. Cornel West. In the beginning of his campaign, Kennedy initially ran as a Democrat before leaving the unusually crowded race within the party against the incumbent President Joe Biden to run as an independent.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Independent presidential hopeful Robert F.
