They were collecting signatures at Mardi Gras parades with no vetting.
Probably people from all across the metro area that thought they could sign.
I got asked. Told them I would sign it but I live in JP. The lady told me thanks for the support though and moved on.
Watched others sign it that got vetted.

Oh yeah, it’s the governor’s fault that a recall of a mayor, who was reelected a few months ago unopposed, failed.

Everybody with brains knew this had no chance in the first place. Even if they got it on the ballot, she would win easily, like Gavin Newsome.

So from I’m reading the initial batch of signatures that they turned in on the deadline had about 21% of signatures rejected (which is inline with the rejection rate for most recalls) but the THIRTY TWO THOUSAND signatures they turned in on day 5 of the 5 day grace period after the deadline were practically all rejected.
So if all of the above is true, it sounds like somewhere in their process was a fatal error that they likely didn’t even know was happening.
Which really shouldn’t be surprising given who was running this shite.
Never forget that the organizers started the clock on collecting signatures and only THEN started to form a game plan of getting the required signatures. They were toast on day 1.

The people who signed are now holding their breath for the eventual repercussions as the names become public record

When I first read that I thougth maybe it was a duplication issue but that only explains 4K of that 40K.
There needs to be explanation about what happened with the other signatures.

What's the worst that can happen, they get carjacked at gunpoint?

Why is the city registrar of voters the arbiter here? Imo this should fall under the purview of the sos as to avoid any conflicts of interest.

Or they turned in the strong batch first and their own internal audit concerns later to minimize the time the registrar would have them in hand

If it means anything, removing Teedy would do basically nothing as Chicago will soon find out. When the problem is the city itself, changing passive mayor for passive mayor won't do anything.

Of course there was tampering. The boxes containing signature sheets were left in the middle of the registrars office and not behind any locked doors. This issue was raised during the court proceedings but never cleared up by office of registrar

Yep:


26,000 of the rejected signatures from the second batch were tagged as “other” for the reason.

They should break down per other code
I’d like to know how many were rejected for profanity
Also what does unable to verify petitioner intent mean?
