I believe that is the case but, I don’t believe the signatures were collected statewide. The may have but it doesn’t make sense.

If the only vote that counts are those within a district then only signatures from his district that are verified and valid will count.

I don’t know the recall law they are using, but there are 33 Wisconsin State Senators.

Here’s Kanapke’s district: http://legis.wisconsin.gov/lrb/bb/05bb/82-83.pdf

It is made up of 3 representative districts in which 2/3 are held by Republicans. Lacrosse is a dense district served by a Democratic representative.

Here’s Kanapke’s Republican primary in which he garnered 39,691. If he can hold that vote total he’ll be re-elected.

There are only 21,700 on that petition and the polling of those who’d vote against Kanapke is only of voters (that’s as reported by MoveOn.Org and you cannot find the poll on Survey USA’s site, nor could I find it on the web). It is not a public poll.

Many of the pro-union polls are of all American adults. What really matters is voters and the only voter that matters in polling is a likely voter, particularly one who voted in the most recent election.

Here’s more and it appears to be a fairly competitive district.
