West on Wednesday morning posted and then deleted tweets suggesting he may hold off on running for president in 2020.
“#2020VISION or maybe ‘24 I guess all black people supposed to vote on Biden? Y’all want me to run on nah???” West said prior to deleting the tweet, according to Billboard.
West has missed the deadline to appear on state ballots in North Carolina, New Mexico, Texas, Michigan, Florida and Indiana, and failed to get enough petition signatures in South Carolina. He is expected to appear on Oklahoma’s state ballot but it is unclear at this time if enough signatures from his home state of Illinois were submitted to make the state’s November ballot.
West’s campaign has caught some controversy over comments he made during a rally he held Sunday in South Carolina, where he falsely claimed that Harriet Tubman “never actually freed the slaves,” adding: “She just had the slaves go work for other white people.”
