MINEOLA, N.Y.—While speculation mounts that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will drop out of the presidential race on Aug. 23 and back former President Donald Trump, the independent candidate told reporters outside of a Long Island courtroom on Aug. 21 that he will be on the ballot in New York and all 50 states.

Kennedy said he was scheduled to hold campaign events this week in Chicago during the Democratic National Convention.
