Wow - interesting course of action you say the Governor is considering there

Pretend the signatures are fake, but submit to the recall election costing the state $9 million anyway?

Of course the Walker camp will not challenge the recall. He's already been challenging it legally, and has GAB working more diligently, so he doesn't even have to personally pay for people cross checking signatures.

Don't you keep up with what's happening there? After all, you live there, and I do not.

Walker would have to throw nearly half a million signatures out as invalid. Not likely, considering the petition signature gatherers were trained, checked the petitions when they were signed, the petitions were cross-checked for accuracy before even being submitted (in case the Walker people who went on the internet bragging they were going to destroy petitions, be false gatherers, submit repetitive false names, etc. did get some petitions submitted)

After all, these same people have already successfully recalled two of five Republican state officials. They know how to submit valid recall petitions.

Now Walker has a recall election. His second will be recalled, too, to keep him from just appointing her if he loses. Three Senators, too.

And then, separately, one Wisconsin woman spearheaded the recall of the Senate Majority Leader, and got enough signatures. An amazing feat that One Wisconsin didn't even try to do, as they didn't think it could be done. But she did it on her own.

Falk declared, but I think it will be Barrett, he polls the best against Walker. Be sure to vote!

You my friend never fail to amaze me. The majority of people believe that there are enough real signatures to force a recall. If there are 200,000 signatures thrown out they still have plenty. So why challenge it. Get it out of the way and continue to enact policies that are for the People of WI. Signing a recall petition is a lot easier than actually voting. Don't pretend that Walker is the one costing the state $9+ million. Next you are going to tell me that unemployment compensation creates Jobs

Barrett will lose. You should hope for Kathleen "Loser" Faulk to get the nomination, however she hasn't won in her last few tries. Don't you even know the 3rd candidate? I thought you knew everything that goes on in WI?

See, what people "believe" doesn't matter. The GAB is entering, verifying and cross-referencing the signatures to remove duplicates, fakes, those that cannot be verified to address, etc. The actual number of valid signatures will be released in 60 days when they are done.

Here is the live stream of the Government Accountability Office actually working on this, so all citizens can watch: http://mirrors.5nines.com/stream/

We'll have to wait for the election to see if Barrett does indeed lose. No, it won't be Falk (please, spell her name correctly, at least), her polling is too low, and yes, I agree she's "a loser".

Don't you even know the 3rd candidate? I thought you knew everything that goes on in WI?

There are eight people who have said they are considering running, not just three. Cullen already declared before the recall petitions were submitted.

Current polling has Barrett over Cullen.
