How many signatures is the latest effort to recall Bobby Jindal falling short? So far only 907,945:

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — An effort started six months ago to recall Republican Gov. Bobby Jindal has fizzled, but the Opelousas man behind the petition will continue trying to oust the governor by running against him this fall.

Ron Ceasar would have needed to gather more than 908,000 signatures by early next week to get a recall election against Jindal. The Louisiana Secretary of State’s Office says 55 signatures have been registered so far.

The recall effort took the wrong approach in collecting signatures. He should have told people the petition was to ban conservative talk radio and he might have gotten more than 55 people to sign it.

“Ban Conservative Talk Radio”

Is he delusional or would he have gotten more than
fifty-five signatures to ban it?

Just asking.

Sounds like a near hit. Bet Jindal is shaking in his boots.

Keep at it, Ron. Maybe in a year or so you can DOUBLE that signature count!

Even in LA, you can’t sign a recall petition with an X.
