Kanye West is making headlines again, this time for his plans to appear on the presidential election ballot in Oklahoma. The rapper and fashion designer has filed paperwork with the Oklahoma State Election Board to appear as an independent candidate in the November election.
West has been vocal about his political ambitions in recent months, and this move is the latest step in his bid for the White House. He has already filed paperwork in several other states, including Arkansas, Colorado, Illinois, Missouri, New Jersey, and West Virginia.
The Oklahoma State Election Board has confirmed that West has met the requirements to appear on the ballot. He will be listed as an independent candidate, and will appear alongside the Democratic and Republican nominees.
West has yet to release a platform or policy proposals, but he has made it clear that he is running on a platform of “love and compassion.” He has also expressed his support for criminal justice reform, and has spoken out against police brutality.
It remains to be seen how much of an impact West will have on the election, but his presence on the ballot is sure to be a talking point in the weeks leading up to November. Whether or not he will be able to make a difference in the outcome of the election remains to be seen, but one thing is for sure: Kanye West is making his presence felt in the 2020 presidential race.
