The number is gonna surprise you when it's officially released on Tuesday.
Also, there are quite a few more than enough sigs for each of the 4 Reptilian Senators eligible for recall.

(12,351 posts)Will there be a new election? What about the Lt Governor? I don't know Wisconsin proceedings.

(34,658 posts)who will run against Walker.
Edit: Probable candidates are former Congressman Dave Obey, State Senator Jon Erpenbach, Congressman Ron Kind, Former Dane County Executive Kathleen Falk, and others
After all kinds of legal shenanigans, of course.

(45,274 posts)And more than enough sigs for all 4 R Senators eligible for recall have been collected. In the one case I'm most familiar with, the recall of Sen. Terry Moulton required 14,000+ sigs. We have 18,000+ on hand.
It only takes 1 Senate flip to get us a majority.
There are some interesting new polling results too. Let me just say Walker's chances are looking dimmer by the minute.
