A judge ruled on Monday that independent presidential candidate Robert F Kennedy Jr's name should not appear on New York's ballot, saying that he falsely claimed a New York residence on nominating petitions despite living in California.Kennedy's lawyers quickly vowed to appeal ahead of the August 15 deadline. If the judge's ruling is upheld, it would not only keep Kennedy off the ballot in New York but could also lead to challenges in other states where he used an address in New York City's suburbs to gather signatures.The ruling came after a North Carolina judge decided earlier on Monday that Kennedy can remain on that state's ballot following a separate challenge on different grounds.
