    “West’s campaign said he had already secured ballot access in Alaska, Oregon, South Carolina and Utah, but some states require a running mate for independent candidates to get on the ballot.”

    Unless he gets on the ballot in enough states to hit 270 electoral votes, it’s not going to matter…

    Actually, won’t matter anyway since he won’t win a single state. But let’s see here…

    Alaska - 3
    Oregon - 8
    South Carolina - 9
    Utah - 6

    So 26 down, 244 to go!

      But he can siphon crucial voting blocks away from Biden, causing Biden to lose states that he should’ve won. This is clearly a sabotage effort and I wonder who’s funding it and how Cornell West’s personal integrity could have dropped so low so suddenly.
