A source at Let the Voters Decide revealed that the 3rd-party petitioning group Kanye’s been using this summer were paid between $3.5 and $4.5 MILLION across 15 states to send workers out for John Hancocks.
SurgeZirc US learned that the biggest amount of cash went toward Arizona, where the rapper reportedly gave out $1 million to get 93,000 signatures only for him to be barred from getting to the ballot by a judge.
Ohio and Virginia were part of the areas where Kanye’s campaign spent $325k and $300k only to gather signatures, and now, he’s been kicked out of the ballot.
Recall that Kanye spent an amount not less than $30k with LTVD in Illinois, and that also didn’t secure his goal, although it’s not immediately clear what he spent in Wisconsin, and he’s also been kicked out from the ballot for missing a deadline by a few seconds.
Currently, Kanye can boast of making it to the ballot in 12 states including Kentucky where he reportedly spent $400k, and Iowa where he spent $80k, and other states where he obviously paid handsomely to Let the Voters Decide.
Kanye West spending continues to grow considering that he’s already reported $6 million he’s spent and disclosed in his first financial report with the FEC earlier this month, which outlined various spending to other companies just to get him on ballots.

Every right-thinking mind could ask if Kanye’s presidential race is worth the spending considering that he’s running independently even though many believe he’s indirectly working with Trump as getting to the ballot will divide Joe Biden’s vote. Kanye has denied working with Trump whether directly or indirectly.
