Kanye West reportedly still in the running for president

By Mark MooreJuly 15, 2020 | 3:17pm | Updated


Kanye West is reportedly still in the presidential race.

The rap superstar filed with the Federal Election Commission, according to a report from TMZ Wednesday.

West filed Form 1 — the Statement of Organization — that says the Kanye 2020 committee will act as the “Principal Campaign Committee,” the report said.

The paperwork listed the party as “the Birthday Party,” the banner he said he would run under when he initially announced his intention earlier this month.

The report noted that he had yet to file Form 2 — Statement of Candidacy — that confirms that he’s raised or spent more than $5,000 in campaign activities, which triggers his candidacy status under federal campaign laws.

And the life of being a religious grifter was just a dream too beautiful for this world.
