Sources close to the Senator Wanggaard Campaign are stating that 130 high school students have signed the recall petitions calling for a recall election. There are 80 confirmed signatures of students who are not old enough to vote. They were verifying additional signatures for eligibility. The group states that they are filing an addendum to the challenge for the recall signatures.

It is not confirmed if these students also signed other recall papers for the Governor. More on this story as it develops.

Trouble is, according to the GAB, that's OK as long as the person signing will be 18 by the time of the election. Since a date for the election has not been set, that is a very vague criterion.

The GAB should be disbanded.

Comments at the site are priceless!

The petition signing is one thing, albeit frequently done illegally, the election is yet another.
