why not recall?

[mimitabby]

how come you guys aren't trying to get rid of that governor?

1. He has to be in office for 1 year before a recall can occur.

2. We have laws in Wisconsin about these things. We follow them

Thanks for the concern.

The recall project has started. Hopefully in a year we will have the 350,000 signatures we need at the time the filing opportunity opens.

5. fantastic!

6. Slight correction

The number of signatures needed:

Total votes cast for governor in 2010 = 2,160,832

times .25 = 540,208

(to be collected in the 60-day period after filing the petition)

And many more than that should be collected to allow for any challenges that are successful.

3. dont bother looking up state election law

before accusing 30,000 protestors of not doing enough

4. goodness!

I am so proud and excited for you guys and the protests and demonstrations that are happening. This was not meant as a put down.
I have a thread on Facebook where I have been giving progress updates on all the stuff you guys are doing.

I wish you all the best, I think Madison, Wisconsin is our Cairo, Egypt.
