RFK Jr sues North Carolina elections board to remove his name from ballot

Action comes after a series of ballot woes are threatening to undermine the impact of his decision to end campaign

Robert F Kennedy Jr is suing North Carolina's state board of elections after it refused to remove his name from the electoral ballot following his decision to drop his independent presidential campaign and endorse Donald Trump.

The legal action comes after a series of ballot woes that initially impeded Kennedy's campaign but are now threatening to undermine the impact of his decision to end it.
