The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports:
About 15% of the signatures in a random sample of the petitions seeking the recall of Republican Gov. Scott Walker could not be verified, according to an analysis by the Journal Sentinel.
The review suggests that even if the number of unverifiable signatures turned out to be three times higher, Walker supporters – barring a new legal challenge – will have a difficult time striking enough of the 1 million signatures submitted to stop a recall election.

The newspaper’s review of 500 signatures is more rigorous than the verification process being conducted by the state Government Accountability Board.
