Well, atleast he made an effort. Rapper and business mogul, kanye West has conceded defeat at the 2020 presidential US election polls as he hints that he is planning to run for presidency again in 2024. The rapper who revealed that he casted his ballot for himself, has made peace with the fact that only about 50,000 people voted for him.
Taking to his Twitter on Tuesday, West shared a photo of him with an electoral map background with the caption; “WELP KANYE 2024.” That was preceded by an earlier Tweet the same day where the 43-year-old announced he was going to vote for the president of the United States for the first, and for himself.
He also shared videos of his ballot process, including filling out his name; as well as that of his pick for vice president Michelle Tidball on the sheet before submitting it.
Though West’s July announcement of his short-lived presidential bid and his subsequent campaign raised eyebrows and was riddled with drama; the Jesus Walks rapper still appeared on ballots in 12 states and managed to secure over 50,000 votes; preliminary tallies by the Associated Press revealed, according to New York Post.
Per the preliminary tallies, the rapper got almost 6,000 votes in Colorado and secured over 1,200 votes in Vermont. He also got almost 4,000 and 2,309 votes in Arkansas and Idaho respectively. He secured 3,179 votes in Iowa while he got 6,259 votes in Kentucky; also got votes in Louisiana (4,837), Minnesota (6,796), Mississippi (3,009); Oklahoma (5,587), Tennessee (10,188), as well as Utah (4,053
