“I don’t see this as a big deal. Verifying a signature is very difficult. “
It can be hard if someone tries to carefully forge a signature. But it’s easy when criminals churning them out in a mill with no exemplar to work from is just signing them from a list of names.
Furthermore, you will notice when thousands have the exact same handwriting...all from the same address.
You may be on to something here. The agreement was to quit comparing signatures to those on file. However, locating the same handwriting does not require comparing with those on file. The ones which appear bogus can be identified and isolated. Once the case is made, then signature matches with on file and contacting the supposed "voters" can be accomplished, later.
