On Julyl 7, Brock Pierce filed with the Federal Election Commission as an independent presidential candidate. See this story. The story is in error when it says that the filing deadlines have passed in New York and Maine. The New York deadline is July 30; the Maine deadline is July 25.
July 25 is a Saturday, so I think Maine’s deadline is July 27.
Did Kanye West file yet?
Kanye West has filed nothing with the FEC as of today.
He thought he needed to file with the SEC (southeast conference of college football) instead. They’ll get it straightened out I’m sure.
