Clear evidence that we have entered the summer silly season of each presidential cycle ...

Ca. 10 states already had their filing deadlines for Indy candidates in the General Election.

Which means Kanye won't be on the ballot for example in TX, NY, IN, NM or NC.

Many deadlines are coming up in July, but most in August and a handful in early September.

It would take some time to file with the FEC and gather 100.000s of signatures in the remaining 40 states, so he will definitely miss ballot access in at least 20 states ...

Yeah, that’s a logistical nightmare for a guy with no political advisers / machine behind him.

He’ll miss at least 20 states, even if he files with the FEC in the next days ...

Ted Bessell, please change your original post.

Kanye West has not filed any paperwork to run.

He is not in.

Why is the thread title still not changed ?

He is NOT in.

He hasn’t filed anything. He’s not collecting any signatures.

This thread is a fraud.

The dude has 2 months to file as an Independent.

By September 8, filing deadlines in all states have passed and he could only run a write-in campaign.

So far, he's not filed for anything and several important states like FL are coming up next week.

Interesting.

I was wondering why he filed from Wyoming, but apparently he has a ranch there and is shifting his Yeezy shoe production there.

It seems he missed the FL ballot, with the deadline today.

About 130.000 signatures would need to be handed in.

But he still has the chance to get on the ballot in 40 other states.

Independent candidate filing deadlines:




Red: filing deadline already passed (deadlines in FL, SC and OK are TODAY)

Green: filing deadline until July 31 (MI tomorrow)

Blue: filing deadline until August 31

Yellow: filing deadline in September (September 4th is the last date for several states)

Kanye is on the Ballot in Oklahoma.

http://ballot-access.org/

This is the first year in which it has been possible for an independent presidential candidate to get on the Oklahoma ballot without a petition. Instead they can qualify with a $35,000 filing fee. On July 15, the deadline, three independent presidential candidates paid their fee and submitted a list of presidential elector candidates. They are Brock Pierce, Kanye West, and Jade Simmons.

So, I would assume that he failed to get on the FL and SC ballots ?

Their deadlines were also yesterday.
