There is a very good chance that the Wisconsin Elections Commission doesn’t even address the rest of the complaint, choosing instead to declare the entire nomination void and the rest of the claims moot.

Losing at that point may be a mercy for West’s team, though. The remaining claims raise serious issues of misrepresentation and deceit that may boarder on criminal activity.

A third, who does “not think Kanye West should run for President” and “would never support or vote for him,” was rushed to sign the papers and told they “related to voting.”

Wisconsin voters have been misled, lied to, and cheated. Thankfully, Kanye West likely will not be on their ballots in November. However, the man connected to his “campaign” through so many threads will be on the ballot.

* Sorry about any typos in my thread ... was in a rush and I am a TERRIBLE editor of my own stuff.
