In 2015 Chastain came in third in the Kansas City mayoral primary. After he was eliminated from the contest he tried to sue to get Mayor Sly James removed from the ballot claiming he was ineligible due to failure to pay property taxes on time. Later second place candidate Vincent Lee tried to get added to the lawsuit. The circuit court and appeals court ruled that Chastain had no legal standing and that Lee joined the lawsuit too late and thus dismissed his case. Chastain says he may quit political activism altogether.
