RICHMOND, Va. – Kanye West is challenging the Virginia Supreme Court after his name was removed from the presidential ballot in the Commonwealth last week.
According to the office of the attorney general, West has filed an appeal with the court to overturn Judge Taylor’s ruling in hopes to get his name back on the ballot before November’s election.

The rapper turned presidential hopeful has also filed a motion for expedited consideration as a way to move through the process quickly, according to the attorney general’s office.
