Kanye West has reportedly bowed out of the US presidential race less than two weeks after making known his intention of reaching the White House.

The news comes from Steve Kramer, a member of Kanye’s campaign team, who told Intelligencer on Tuesday, July 14, 2020, that after amassing a 180-strong campaign team in Florida, the rapper would no longer be contesting the election.

He’s out,” Kramer told the publication, adding that he was in the process of getting “all our stuff canceled.”

He later mentioned:

I have nothing good or bad to say about Kanye… Any candidate running for president for the first time goes through these hiccups.”

The report further reveals that Kanye tried to get his name on the ballot as a third-party candidate, but needed to collect 132,781 signatures by Wednesday, July 15, 2020, to be eligible to run in Florida.

According to Kramer, the staff was told that the drive to get on the ballot was over on the same day Kanye shared an image of himself registering to vote in Wyoming.
