I am convinced that some people get off on having meltdowns over things they don't even bother to spend 10 seconds researching.

Well there are still the fools who'll do write-in ballots. Though likely they'd never have voted for either the major parties anyway.
People in this thread freaking out when this on the level of Michael Scott yelling I declare bankruptcy. People write in shit like Chuck Norris all the time. Chuck Norris isn't stealing any votes from Biden or Trump. Those people were never voting for a real candidate to begin with.
This is a good point. Let's not forget when Mickey Mouse was president.
Correct, write-ins are a virtual non-factor. They were almost certainly up in 2016 because of how unpopular both candidates are but they still did not impact the results.
No, Harambe didn't get 11,000 votes for president | CNN
That story about Harambe the gorilla getting thousands of votes for president? Just more weirdness in the wackiest election of all time.

I don't think he's actually running. But the deadlines in that tweet are for the Democratic/Republican ticket. Only a few states have expired deadlines if he were to run as an Independent.
The more ridiculous antics Kanye does before an album the worse it's gonna be. This Dre/Ye collab gonna be terrible
That's why I said write ins. If republican voting fools want to write in Kanye they'll write in Kanye.
..:write-ins. And please spare me the god damn lecture about how insignificant write-ins are. Yes we go through that shit every election, but it's so fucking annoying to see people here say, "every vote counts" and give people shit if they choose to abstain from voting or want to vote third party in this election, but suddenly the amount of votes KW could hypothetically receive is just insignificant, so who cares, right? Those two thoughts are incompatible with each other.
Essentially nobody writes in names. it isn't a thing that people actually do.
People voting third party/staying home is a real problem that costs elections.
At least some of us don't use two spaces between sentences!
He's obviously not going to be a candidate unless he wants to mount a write-in campaign, but could Trump dump Pence and bring on Kanye as his running mate? I'm not sure what the specifics around the VP nomination deadline are. That feels like the only plausible political angle for this if Trump is looking at the polls and sweating.
no because Trump is a racist and doesn't actually like or respect Kanye.
The problem was that he was behind the wheel in the first place. This time, we'll make Jesus walk
I doubt Trump likes Ben Carson either (or Diamond & Silk), but he uses people to fit his agenda.
Hrm, my better angels makes me think he won't get his shit together and actually get on the ballot and this is just one of those things that kanye does that people talk about and he never follows thru on.
Still given his closeness with Trump I feel like there is some motive there. Like this is a conversation they've had.
