Chicago native, rapper, and now presidential candidate Kanye West has enough signatures to make it onto the Illinois ballot. On Monday night, the Illinois Board of Elections confirmed with CBS 2 that West filed 412 petition sheets around 5 p.m.

West needed 2,500 Illinois registered voters’ signatures. In a typical year, 25,000 signatures are needed, but because of the pandemic, independent and new-party candidates need fewer signatures this year.

Holy shite...would be glorious.

“ On abortion, West said that while he believes it should be legal, financial incentives to help struggling mothers could be a way to discourage the practice.

“Everybody that has a baby gets a million dollars,” he said as an example.”

Kanye is about to wreck shite for the Dems and Biden. Trump will benefit from this and the new excuse will be born.

There were about 5.2 million votes cast in Illinois for president in 2016. Trump received about 2.1 million and Hillary about 3 million.

If Kanye can grab a million Biden voters Trump may have a chance.

You forgot that the population may actually decrease by then. More murders and people moving out of the danger zones

You probably should learn math

Don’t even know where to start in explaining it to you.

3M +2.1M = 5.1M
OP stated 5.2 so there is a difference of 100k votes which went to Indy or invalid votes

Or

Kanye siphons off 1M votes from HRC’s total of 3M which puts Biden at 2M

2.1M (GEOTUS) > 2M for Biden

The more you know

Could you imagine if he splits the vote in Chicago and Trump carries Illinois? That would be the melt of all melts.

^^^ Based on that you’ve gotta believe West’s people have talked to Trump’s about best way to steal Biden votes

If Trump starts stealing states like Illinois because of 3rd Party West this will have an effect of hurting democrat president candidate Biden like Bush was hurt by Perot

That would be one of the greatest performances by a 3rd party presidential candidate of all time. He’s got a long way to go
