Supporters of an effort to recall Los Angeles County District Attorney
George Gascón filed a new legal action Friday asking a judge to certify
the recall petition against the county’s top prosecutor, saying a nearly
year-long review of rejected signatures show the group actually submitted
nearly 6,000 more names than required.

The Los Angeles Superior Court petition contends the review by the
Committee to Support the Recall of District Attorney George Gascón
resulted in the discovery of tens of thousands of valid names that were
incorrectly or unlawfully invalidated by the Los Angeles County Registrar-
Recorder/County Clerk’s Office. The petition also alleges the registrar
used negligent and flawed counting processes, while also requiring an
inflated number of petition signatures due to bloated voter rolls.

A registrar representative issued a statement Friday saying, “We were made
aware of the filing late this afternoon. As with the other claims made by
the recall proponents, we will respond in accordance with the legal
framework without regard to the political narrative.”

According to the petition, the recall group submitted 715,833 signatures
in July 2022 of people who backed the recall, nearly 150,000 more than the
566,857 signatures that the registrar informed the committee was necessary
to trigger a recall election.

Over the next month, the registrar utilized close to 400 people to verify
the signature sufficiency of the recall drive, most of whom were temporary
workers with no background in election law or the registrar’s computer
systems, the petition alleges.

Ultimately, the registrar concluded that 195,758 supporting signatures,
over 27% of the total submitted, were invalid for one of 16 different
reasons, the petition states. The registrar found that the recall
supporters had provided only 520,050 valid signatures, about 46,807 fewer
than was needed to qualify for a recall election, the petition states.

The recall committee exercised its legal right to review the recall
petition, doing a signature-by-signature assessment of the reasons for the
rejection with the help of 140 volunteers and obtaining a court injunction
to get access to perform the examination, the petition states.

The review showed the that the recall effort actually required no more
than 540,338 signatures to qualify for a recall election and the group
submitted more than 546,234 valid names, the petition states.

The registrar incorrectly rejected about 5,600 signatures based on a
failure to comply with unconstitutional signature review standards, the
petition states.
