Kanye West has reportedly decided to call it quits on his run in the 2020 Presidential election, less than two weeks after he first marked his entrance into the race.
According to the Intelligencer, West hired campaign staff who were looking into getting his name listed as a third-party candidate in Florida and several other states, but the team has now been told the bid is off.
Steve Kramer, an election strategist hired by West to focus on getting his name on the ballot in Florida and South Carolina, told the publication on Thursday, 'He’s out'.

I do think that having him on the ballot in FL and a few other swing states would have been helpful in keeping them in the Trump column, but oh, well. Easy come, easy go.
Unlike, say, Michael Bloomberg, Kanye can’t drop hundreds of millions on a fruitless campaign without feeling the financial pain. At least he had enough sense to stop the bleeding early.
Darn - now there’s nobody to vote for!!!! One of the finest minds of our time and he withdraw when the nation turns it lonely eye’s to him in search of a great leader....
wow, i thought he was gonna go all the way.
/s
they have so many followers
have them do a write in push from their social media platforms
just control it all from there
they cant do any worse managing it themselves, and it’d cost way less
That was shorter than a Britney Spears marriage.
Ever’body wants to be a gangsta until it’s time to do gangsta $h!t.
So, if I announce I’m running for President, can I say I’ve dropped out of the race, too?
he’d never handle the workload.
among other obvious issues.
Right after he got in it was reported
he filed too late to get on the ballot
in states that would have provided 110
electoral votes
Voters will just have to write him in.
His candidacy fell apart faster than a 3 dollar suitcase!
Nobody actually thought he was serious, did they? Kanye likes attention most of all.
Who wants to undergo the financial disclosure process for POTUS?
And after he got name on highways all the way from Mass. to CA.
Just shows you that campaigning is tough. The long, arduous journey to the White House is one not for the faint of heart. One of his handlers commented, “He gave it his all. He really did. But in the end the stress and strain of campaigning were just too much.”
West is reportedly working on a new album to be released in late October in which the rapper will reportedly reflect on his presidential bid. His promoters have said to look for “Ye, I’ma Do It” to be released some time in late October.
Sure! You can put both statements in the same paragraph.
Saves time and paper.
Oh there are plenty of people who think he’s serious.
