What explanation do you have for why Kanye West needs signatures in order to appear on the November ballot in the State of Missouri? What do you think would happen if he did not need signatures?

JEFFERSON CITY — Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft said Tuesday that rapper Kanye West did not turn in enough voter signatures to have his name on the Nov. 3 ballot as an independent candidate for president.

West announced his candidacy last month. Ashcroft, a Republican, said West’s campaign turned in 6,557 valid voter signatures — short of the 10,000 signatures needed to make the ballot.

Maura Browning, spokeswoman for the secretary of state’s office, said his campaign turned in 5,072 invalid signatures, or nearly 44% of all the signatures the campaign submitted.
