Kanye’s attempt to re-elect Trump hits another roadblock when Ohio rejected his effort to appear on the ballot as reported by Fox 19 Columbus. The Devil is in the details.

Under Ohio election law, to appear on the ballot independent candidates for president and vice president must file a jointly signed statement of candidacy as well as a nominating petition with a sufficient number of signatures.
West and Tidball submitted one original statement of candidacy and 1,400 part-petitions, each with a copy of a second, distinct statement of candidacy. The part-petitions weren’t at issue per se, but Ohio election law requires each part-petition to be accompanied by copies of the same statement of candidacy originally filed with the secretary of state’s office.
