"Bobby feels that the DNC is changing the rules to exclude his candidacy so an independent run is the only way to go," one campaign advisor said.
Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will reportedly jettison the Democrats and soon announce plans to seek the White House in 2024 as an in independent candidate.
He is expected to make the announcement on Oct. 9 at a Pennsylvania rally, Mediaite reported. An adviser to the presidential candidate said his decision stemmed from what he considered unfair practices by the Democratic National Committee to stifle his candidacy.
"Bobby feels that the DNC is changing the rules to exclude his candidacy so an independent run is the only way to go," one campaign advisor told the outlet.
At present, Kennedy averages 14.9% support in the Democratic primary to Biden's 65.0%, according to RealClearPolitics. Hollywood guru Marianne Williamson places third with 4.9%.
Kennedy has long expressed frustrations with both the DNC and the Biden White House. In July of this year, he fumed at the administration's decision to reject his request for Secret Service protection.
