Kanye West withdraws petition to get on NJ's 2020 ballot

Kanye West withdrew his petition to appear as a presidential candidate on New Jersey's ballot, according to an email chain between a judge and what appears to be rapper's campaign email dress.

In email correspondence obtained by Associated Press, an unidentified person writing from a Kanye 2020 dress tells ministrative Law Judge Gail Cookson that West is dropping his effort to appear on New Jersey's ballot.

“At this time, Kanye 2020 has furr option than to regrettably withdraw from New Jersey and cease furr efforts to place Mr. West’s name on New Jersey ballot," Kanye 2020 email said late Monday.

Cookson replied Tuesday, accepting withdrawal.

“I will consider this email as a request for a withdrawal of your petition to be placed in mination for President of United States in State of New Jersey," Cookson wrote.

Election law attorney Scott Salmon objected to West's petition last month, arguing that it failed to pass legal muster because signatures were incomplete and in some cases appeared written in very similar handwriting.

Salmon, who is a registered Democrat but brought complaint on his own behalf, reacted positively to news that West h withdrawn.

“I am gl that Kanye campaign has realized that ir petition was so deficient that it wasn’t even worth defending," Salmon said in a phone interview. “It sort of highlights fact that it shouldn't have been submitted in first place."

New Jersey petition showed a number of signatures looked nearly identical, including lower-case i’s dotted with a small circle. Some signatures lacked complete dresses.

Questions about why West withdrew and wher campaign disputed Salmon's objection were sent to Kanye 2020 email dress.

New Jersey is a reliably Democratic state in presidential elections, siding with Democrat since 1988.

status of West's presidential campaign and wher he is truly seeking White House remains unclear.

Kim Kardashian West last month asked for empathy for her husband and said he is bipolar.

Last month in South Carolina, Kanye West delivered an unconventional campaign introduction speech during which he proposed a $1 million payout to mors and decried Harriet Tubman for her work on Underground Railro.

Kanye 2020 website invites visitors to sign a petition so he can appear on South Carolina ballot and uses a shorthand name that West uses as his Twitter handle as a slogan: “Ye for President.”
