TL;DR Summary

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. may face ballot access issues in Nevada as his campaign failed to name a running mate when filing his petition, rendering the collected signatures void. The campaign must now start signature collection from scratch in the state, but still has time to do so before the August 7 deadline. While Kennedy is confirmed on the ballot in Utah, different states have varying laws for independent candidates to gain ballot access, with some requiring named running mates. Additionally, a super PAC supporting Kennedy has faced complaints of illegal collusion with his campaign, and the campaign's success has led the PAC to redirect its efforts to counteract Democratic and Republican interference with third-party campaigns.
