Section B(2) of that statutory language allows a "custodian" (who can be anyone) of the signature to deliver it to the registrar. The voter does not have to personally deliver it. That Twitter user is reading the statute wrong.
I think the issue is the date of the signatures, not who delivered them.
The statute says anyone who wants to add or remove their signature may do so within the 5 days following submission/receipt of the petition. So the supplemental signatures submitted in the second round would have needed to be collected during those 5 days.
Considering they collected 34,000 signatures over the first 180 days, it seems unlikely that they collected an additional 32,000 signatures in the following 5-day period.
This, combined with the fact that the first two rejection reasons listed under “other” are “signature dated before petitioner deadline” and “petition submitted after petitioner deadline,” makes me think the organizers fricked up and didn’t submit all of the signatures in the first batch.
I really wish we knew how many signatures were rejected for that reason.

The other speculation I’ve seen that makes sense is that the first batch passed their internal audit so they sent that in no problem on the deadline.
But the second batch was shite they knew had problems but there wasn’t any time left so they submitted and whatever happens happens.
The organizers almost certainly knew the second batch was fricked and had a slim chance of being counted.

Makes sense.
But it isn’t conspiratorial enough to be popular here.

It honestly doesn’t match the recap though. About 1000 in the second batch were bounced for standard reasons.
The 26000+ “other” points towards deadline issues.
I had the same initial thought but as paperwork came out this afternoon it really doesn’t match well initially. We will see as more explanation is certainly owed.

The recall started by the sister of Teedy/Teddy’s best friend failed. Shocking.

What happened to every voice/vote should count?

No dog in this fight but to say 40k signatures were bad is complete bullshite. Litigation will surely be following this clown show.
Hopefully, WWL or some news organizations start checking the math on this, like WTF dud they just get Jefferson Parish or something

This really shouldn’t be a liberal or conservative bs desk or demogods or Replicons, a mayor can be from Green Party and be great. She is a freaking national embarrassment, and killing the city. Purple white black yellow she is dog shite

And again.. they collected 34,000 signatures over the first 180-day period and then (ostensibly) collected 32,000 signatures in the next 5-day period.
That just doesn’t seem possible to me unless a large portion of the second batch were signed before the initial deadline.
If a large portion of these were bounced due to the deadline but were otherwise valid, that would be a pretty unfortunate frickup.

So 40K unqualified people signed the petition? Something doesn’t sound right here. Did the registrar get through the entire list to check all of them or did they just toss what they didn’t get to? This is fishy

The Advocate did an audit and found a noncompliance rate less than five percent. Now the rate is over 50 percent. Is the Advocate that bad or a fraudulent count.

And if that second batch was even remotely viable they would’ve been good. It could’ve been rejected at like double the rate of the first batch. If it’s accurate it’s just the deadline issue - it’s one of the most astounding political mistakes possible. To get the signatures but not submit them properly would be just unbelievable levels of frickup

Sources say one of the disqualifications for recall signatures was if a person’s signature didn’t match their drivers license signature.
Easy way to disqualify signatures

Nolatoya.org finally issued a statement blaming various problems like state law on recalls, the disarray of Nola voting rolls, and interference and intimidation by the TP/Advocate. All valid complaints.
However, the statement does not address the 40k signature rejections. If there was a good explanation, wouldn't they lead off with it? Disappointing.

That’s insanity….who is the judge of that? And how in the hell does someone have time to do that with tens of thousands of signatures? I don’t live in Orleans, but I can tell you no two signatures of mine are ever 100% alike, not to mention some of these signings took place that made writing 100% proper difficult.
What a fricked up state….

I’m just wondering why they turned in the 32k during the grace period and not sooner.

Lets get this straight.
The demorats do not care if dead people vote.
They accept people dropping votes in a drop box with no control.
For making it easier for people to vote.
When it comes to a recall against one of their own, they want to check everything with a fine tooth comb.
Something stinks.

You have to read between the lines. What they mean is every democrat voice/vote matters when it helps them achieve their goal, otherwise it don't mean squat!

So in the Presidential election, Liberal scum can magically add votes from dead people, people that don't exist, etc. for Retard Joe, but when New Orleans has a bunch of signatures that would recall Cock Sucker Destroya, the Liberal scum again will magically discard certain amount of signatures?
This city/country is a mother fricking mess. New Orleans deserves EVERY MOTHER frickING negative thing happening to them. Every single thing. Let that shite hole city rot and burn. It's not the shittiest city in the country, it's the worst city in the world. BY a whole fricking lot.
