Gavin Newsom recall closes in on signature count with 7 weeks to go. Is it enough?(1.4 million and counting!)

Under a small blue canopy adorned with yellow balloons and vinyl banners, volunteers for the Recall Gavin Newsom campaign welcomed passing shoppers, handing them clipboards and encouraging them to sign their petitions to remove the Democratic governor from office. Some drivers honked in support. Others waved and said they've already signed.

Hundreds of volunteers just like them busily collect signatures throughout the state, spending weekends in California parking lots discussing the need for a change in power. Parents put down their names, worried about the mental health of their virtually schooled children. Business owners sign, their livelihoods crushed by the state's crackdown on coronavirus. Others are mad that he hasn't done enough to get the homeless off the streets.

All of them want the governor gone.

So far, recall supporters say they've collected 1.2 million signatures — though the state has verified only about a third of them. That's still short of the 1.45 million minimum to qualify in a state with more than 22 million voters, and well below the estimated 2 million they'll need to turn in to state officials by March 17 to ensure they have an adequate number of valid signatures.

And the democrats will carefully check each signature looking for fraud.

Anything less than 1.75 million will be at risk of having the recall effort tossed. The CA courts will find a way to nullify enough signatures.

If they follow Georgia’s example, they only need to take a sample of the over 1 million signatures (say 50,000) and check just those signatures.

They better get two million and do some damn good vetting before they turn in the petitions. Lots of petitions flame out because of duplicates and ineligible to votes.
