Kanye West struggles on. |
The nominee of a party must obtain 270 electoral votes to be the president.
It's reported that Donald J. Trump will not concede. If he does win, we will expect unrest in the country. If Joe Biden does win, Trump and Republicans will conjure up conspiracies about how the election was "stolen" by Democrats and the junk food media.
Kanye West, the controversial entertainer is taking money from his own account to fund his campaign. He is struggling to get on the ballots in key states. He admits that he's a spoiler and Republicans are doing their best to get him in.
As a registered Republican in Wyoming, many believe that his independent bid for president is nothing more than an op to help Trump win and appeal to his declining fan base.
The Federal Elections Committee has reported that West had loaned nearly $7 million of his own money to help his effort to win. He only raised only a mere $11,000 in outside donations.
That means he won't be able to get radio or television ads.
The report shows that West spent $5.9 million and owes more than $1.2 million in outstanding debt to consultants. Of that money spent he spent over $4.4 million trying to secure ballot spots across the country and it got him 11 states.
The campaign gave $1.3 million to Atlas Strategy Group, which is led by Republican operative Gregg Keller, a prominent Trump supporter and activist. He also paid $2.6 million to Millennial Strategies, a New York based firm that consulted Democrats.
West, a supporter of Trump said that he's not denying he's trying to hurt Biden.
West is trying to generate a presence with Black voters. He only appeals to 2% of Black voters.
It's could be a deciding factor in swing states.
