Majority of campaign spending has gone toward hiring consultants and GOP operatives for “ballot access services”; Birthday Party has also raised just $11,000
Some campaign funds have also been routed to legal firms in battleground states like Wisconsin and Arizona to appeal rulings that have blocked the Birthday Party from appearing on their respective presidential ballots. Another over $95,000 went toward travel expenses — including a private jet for the rapper — and $25,000 was paid to West’s reported “spiritual advisor.”
The FEC filings show that the Birthday Party has so far accumulated debts of $8 million, with $900,000 in cash on hand. On Friday, West’s campaign filed to appear on the presidential ballot in Kentucky; while the application is still under review, the state’s Secretary of State and chief elections official Michael Adams
that he would certify the Birthday Party to be on the Election Day ballot. A decision on the Mississippi presidential ballot is similarly pending.
