Kanye West may have already dropped out of running for President after an early poll suggested he was on track for a humiliating election defeat. Redfield & Wilton Strategies in the USA polled 2,000 Americans on July 9, five days after Kanye’s bombshell announcement, to gauge public opinion of the upcoming presidential race. The rap star reportedly hired 180 campaign staff to help him in his five month campaign for Presidency – but the team have allegedly been told the bid is off. The U-turn would be just two weeks after Kanye dramatically announced his intention to run for office.
