Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s independent campaign for the White House is lining up to be the most significant third party challenge since Ross Perot’s 1992 effort.
Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has raised millions ahead of 2024. His campaign is already spending it to put together what could be the most notable third-party campaign in recent memory.
In an email to The Epoch Times, the Kennedy campaign’s press secretary, Stefanie Spear, said the current focus is “getting Mr. Kennedy on the ballot in all 50 states.”
“We are spending most of our money on setting up field offices in every state, organizing volunteers, and organizing rallies,” Ms. Spear wrote.
Since announcing his intent to run as an independent rather than a Democrat in October, Mr. Kennedy has made 13 official campaign appearances in South Carolina, Maryland, Maine, Tennessee, Kentucky, Ohio, Texas, Florida, Georgia, and North Carolina.
At the end of September, the last time the Federal Election Commission released fundraising data for presidential campaigns and affiliated political action committees, Mr. Kennedy had raised $15 million.
According to FEC filings, Mr. Kennedy’s principal campaign committee, Team Kennedy, had about $6.1 million on hand at the end of September. It had spent about $8.9 million.
Mr. Kennedy’s campaign had more cash on hand at the end of September than the campaigns of Republican Party candidates Vivek Ramaswamy, former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie, and North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum.
