In what would amount to a remarkable victory for an effort that faced long odds when it began, organizers claimed Monday that the campaign to recall New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell has collected enough signatures to force a vote on whether she may remain in office.

"We are confident we have enough signatures to hand in the petition on Wednesday. We urge residents who are on the fence to sign and help build a cushion," said Eileen Carter, a recall organizer.

Some judge somewhere will find a reason this won't work.

The problem is, through no fault of the organizers, I guarantee there’s a bunch of people who signed it twice, used a fake name that can’t be verified, or signed even though they aren’t registered in Orleans parish. You really need like 120% of the required amount to be sure.

She still won’t be voted out.

Doesn’t matter. They had enough signatures to create St.George also and look at what happened. Democrats don’t follow the laws no matter what you think they will allow this?

Unless “enough signatures” actually means about 2000 over however many they needed, this is gonna be tough. And I’m old enough to remember the the great, failed first petition for St George.

Since NOLA registrar of voters gets to verify signatures I can see some major issues/conflicts of interest arising from the process. This should be fun to watch.
