Media reports report that the 43-year-old man who failed to comply with sending a large block of the 10,000 petition firms had to obtain the state survey until Monday’s noon deadline.
“The petition deadline has passed for the 2020 general election and the sending of state elections has won a request from Kanye West. There are no exceptions to the deadline,” South Carolina Board spokesman Chris Whitmire told Intelligencer.
In a message to the Post and Courier, Whitmire added that neither West nor an Apple representative of his crusade had filed the petition directly with the South Carolina Electoral Commission.
USA TODAY contacted the South Carolina Electoral Commission and the South Carolina State Elections Office for comment.
This deadline is generally July 1 of five, but was extended for five days due to the state of emergency of the coronavirus. The South Carolina Electoral Commission’s website also does not list West’s presentations or the applicable BDY political component with Kanye 2020 registration documents filed with the Federal Election Commission, according to Greenville News, a component of USA TODAY. West said in an interview with Forbes on July 8 that he was running for president in 2020 under a new banner: the birthday component.
