Los Angeles County election officials must grant an organization seeking to oust District Attorney George Gascon access to about 10,000 signatures rejected from recall petitions due to a mismatch with voter registration records, a judge ruled Tuesday.

Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge James C. Chalfant partially granted The Committee to Support the Recall of District Attorney George Gascón a partial injunction challenging the Los Angeles County registrar-recorder/county clerk’s rejection of petition signatures in October.

“The registrar argues that government code … only requires disclosure of the current signatures,” Chalfant said in a written decision. “It acknowledged that prior signatures on file for voters whose signatures were denied because of a mismatch were reviewed by the registrar, but it cannot reveal them, separate from confidential information without pulling manually these records and redacting other information.”

The process to separate prior signatures from confidential information would involve about 3,080 staff hours at $15 per hour, the registrar has estimated.

Gascon’s Dem buddies will destroy those petition signatures before they allow someone to review them. The Dems in this state don’t have much fear of committing that kind of crime.
They figure it’s par for the course of keeping power.

Why in the world would anyone support having criminal predatory menaces roaming the streets? No matter what color or race they are it's just totally wrong. It boggles my mind.
