And it doesn't help the effort any that the Demonrat Secretary of State is pulling a "slow down" in verifying the petition signatures, claiming a lack of resouces to do that "extra work." However, if it was a petition to raise taxes so that the state could erect a monument to Gray Davis, you can bet that he'd be on it like a duck on a june bug.
He isn't going to get away with it. The recall people took a letter to him Friday, saying that he has until close of business Monday to knock this crap off and announce to the world that he'll count continuously, as required in the state law. If he doesn't, they'll file suit Tuesday in a Sacramento court that handles these sorts of election-related disputes in an expedited fashion.
That pretty much says it all.
