RFK Jr. insists he is ‘not a spoiler’ and makes a promise to Biden: I will drop out of the race if you outperform me against Trump in a head-to-head poll

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said Wednesday he would sign a “no spoiler pledge” if President Joe Biden did the same.

Kennedy argued at an event in New York that he is not a “spoiler” because if the election were held today, former President Donald Trump would defeat Biden – whether he runs or not.

The bombing would be even worse, Kennedy said, if only Trump and Biden were on the ballot, because Trump could flip Virginia and Maine.

“I’m doing much, much better against President Trump than President Biden,” the ex-Democrat declared.

He then offered to resign if polls several weeks before the election no longer showed that, as long as Biden agreed to do the same.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. outlines what his “no spoiler promise” would look like at an event in New York City on Wednesday

“This is a ‘no spoiler promise’ that we are announcing today. “This is a commitment I offer to make if President Biden makes it,” he explained. “Both parties agree to co-fund a poll in 50 states with 30,000 or more likely voters in mid-October.”

He said this large research pool would essentially guarantee a zero margin of error.

“The study will test the results of a head-to-head race pitting President Biden against President Trump. And a second head-to-head race, pitting me against President Trump,” Kennedy said. “Both parties, whoever performs weakest against President Trump in a two-man contest, will drop out of the presidential race.”

Polls from Zogby Analytics, unveiled at the Kennedy event, showed that Kennedy could pull off a victory against Trump if it was a two-way contest.

The chance that an incumbent president and a candidate from one of the two major parties will drop out of the race by mid-October is virtually nil.

‘Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is a spoiler – recruited by the MAGA GOP and backed by Trump’s biggest donor. His VEEP-like performance today does nothing to dispel that notion – it merely reinforces how deeply unserious his campaign is,” Democratic National Committee spokesman Matt Corridoni told DailyMail.com in a statement.

Kennedy — a prominent anti-vaxxer who left the Democratic Party in October to run for a third-party candidate — has yet to get his name on every state’s ballot.

So far, the Kennedy campaign has secured ballot access in Michigan, a top state, Utah and California.

In Michigan, Kennedy and his running mate, attorney and entrepreneur Nicole Shanahan, will represent the little-known Natural Law Party, which already has a reserved spot on the ballot.

Similarly, the Kennedy-Shanahan ticket in California represents the American Independent Party of California.

In other states, the Kennedy campaign has focused on signature gathering efforts, requiring independent candidates to get on the ballot in the usual — but difficult — way.

The campaign has said it has collected enough signatures to appear on ballots in Hawaii, New Hampshire, North Carolina, Idaho, Nebraska, Iowa and Nevada, but those efforts have not been without problems.

In Nevada, the signatures collected could be thrown out because Kennedy needed a running mate listed on the paperwork he filed.

The signatures from Nevada were collected before Shanahan was announced as Kennedy’s VP pick in March.

Nevada’s secretary of state said an official there told the Kennedy campaign the wrong information, but that state law should still be followed.

In turn, the Kennedy campaign has threatened to sue Nevada.
