Democrats have grown increasingly alarmed by Kennedy’s strength in polls, especially since he named Silicon Valley philanthropist Nicole Shanahan as his running mate. Not only could she fund the cash-strapped campaign, but her selection and the way the campaign introduced her signaled that Kennedy is positioning himself more on the left in the 2024 campaign.

Shanahan, announced on stage that she was leaving the Democratic Party and invited others to join her.

Democrats are especially concerned about Kennedy attracting low-propensity voters who are only marginally attached to the Democratic Party, including swaths of young people.

Wisconsin 'Uninstructed' Vote Shows Democratic Frustration With Joe Biden​



More than 8% of Wisconsin Democrats voted “uninstructed” in the state’s primary Tuesday, in an effort to warn President Joe Biden that he is alienating voters in a state where he narrowly won against former President Donald trump in 2020.

The “uninstructed” votes tallied more than 47,000 ― over twice the initial goal set by Listen To Wisconsin, the grassroots campaign that mobilized people to send a message with their vote demanding a policy change over the war in Gaza. As of Wednesday afternoon, more than 95% of primary votes had been counted. Biden secured Wisconsin in 2020 by a little over 20,000 votes.

On the course!
Plenty of people don't waste their time voting primaries.

Biden got over 1,600,000 votes in 2020.

When push comes to shove, you vote Biden or Trump, or simply waste your vote. Most people won't waste their vote, IMO.

I actually like some of his views. Believe it or not. mainly his stance on the covid vaccine. He is a little out there on global warming, because its a hoax, lots of people believe its real. I saw an interview a few months back and he is very likeable. The democrat party did him dirty, he beats Biden hands down given a fair shot, democrats are known manipulating, cheating, narcissists so they made sure they could keep someone they can dominate and make do what they want to do

What Democrats? Republicans are worried about the anti-vaxxers that don't like Trump but won't ever vote Biden going to Kennedy.

'Real threat': US presidential long-shot RFK Jr alarms Democrats​


Armed with the most storied surname in US politics, Robert F. Kennedy's wildcard shot for the presidency holds a clear and present danger for Joe Biden's hopes of a second term in the White House.

The environmental lawyer and conspiracy theorist is boasting double-digit support, and polling suggests that independent candidate "RFK Jr" is hurting the president more than Republican challenger Donald Trump.

Democrats have learned to fear long-shot outsiders after George W. Bush and Donald Trump won tight elections in 2000 and 2016, buoyed by Green Party candidates leeching votes from Al Gore and Hillary Clinton.


"Hyper-polarization is the reason that a third-party candidate with name recognition is such a threat at this time," said Donald Nieman, a professor and political analyst at New York state's Binghamton University.

The Kennedy campaign’s New York director is taking it a step further.

In a meeting with Republicans in the Empire State, Rita Palma said that “our mutual enemy is Biden.”

“The only way that Trump can even, remote possibility of taking New York is if Bobby is on the ballot. If it’s Trump versus Biden, Biden wins. Biden wins six days, seven days a week. With Bobby in the mix, anything can happen,” Palma said on video of the meeting, dated Friday and viewed by CNN.

You know you're a serious candidate when your campaign spokesperson is talking about helping an opponent win.

Allies are discussing ways to elevate third-party candidates in battleground states to divert votes away from President Biden, along with other covert tactics to diminish Democratic votes.

They plan to promote independent candidate RFK Jr. as a “champion for choice” to give voters for whom abortion is a top issue — and who also don’t like Biden — another option on the ballot, according to one person who is involved in the effort and who, like several others, spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss the plans.

Trump allies also plan to amplify the progressive environmental records of Kennedy and expected Green Party candidate Jill Stein in key states — contrasting their policies against the record-high oil production under Biden that has disappointed some climate activists.

A third parallel effort in Michigan is meant to diminish Democratic turnout in November by amplifying Muslim voters’ concerns about Biden’s support for Israel’s war in the Gaza Strip. Trump allies are discussing running ads in Dearborn, Michigan, and other parts of the state with large Muslim populations that would thank Biden for standing with Israel, according to three people familiar with the effort, which is expected to be led by an outside group unaffiliated with the Trump campaign.

They already showed their hand. They are in it for Trump. RFKjr has no plans at a serious run. His own spokesperson said as much and you quoted her.

Good luck with you fantasy of normal people switching to the anti-vax whacko. He only appeals to.........well, look at the people starting posts about him (you and Hedgy).

why didn't the dnc give him a fair shot at the nomination? Or anyone else that was running that has a little sense? I saw a young guy that was running against Biden and he said it was all rigged.

Environmental groups are condemning RFK Jr's bid and his environmental policy in new efforts on Friday, portraying him as a candidate who will increase the chances former President Donald Trump is reelected.

The Natural Resources Defense Council, a climate advocacy group where Kennedy previously served as senior attorney for 28 years, is planning to run a full-page advertisement in newspapers through its political arm in six battleground states on Sunday. According CNN, the group is calling on Kennedy to drop out of the race to prevent him from being a spoiler for Trump.

“We have spent our careers fighting to protect the planet and its people. As current and former leadership and board members of the NRDC Action Fund, as well as former colleagues of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., we have one message for him: Honor our planet, drop out,” the ad reads.


“In nothing more than a vanity candidacy, RFK Jr. has chosen to play the role of election spoiler to the benefit of Donald Trump.
