Democratic presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is reportedly planning to switch tickets and run as an independent in the 2024 election.
A campaign staffer told Mediaite that Kennedy's campaign will announce his party affiliation switch on Oct. 9 in Pennsylvania. Kennedy's team will begin launching"attack ads" against the Democratic National Committee ahead of his announcement, escalating the fight between the candidate and the organization.“Bobby feels that the DNC is changing the rules to exclude his candidacy so an independent run is the only way to go,” the Kennedy campaign insider told Mediaite.

"We live in a time when a growing number of Americans think that democracy is broken and that the political system is rigged," Kennedy said in September."The DNC’s recent actions confirm this outlook. It will better serve America to run a fair and free primary election."
