Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (RFK Jr.) said on Friday he is suspending his presidential campaign but not dropping out of the race completely. Kennedy said he won't appear on ballots in states where his candidacy would benefit the Democratic ticket.

While he endorsed former President Donald Trump, he encouraged his supporters to still vote for him in states where his name is still on the ballot.

The move was slightly telegraphed. Scripps News confirmed on Thursday night that Kennedy filed paperwork with the Arizona Secretary of State's Office to have his name withdrawn from the ballot. Also, a court filing in Pennsylvania on Friday said Kennedy would endorse Trump. Both are battleground states.
