Louisiana: Huge problems in signatures submitted in New Orleans Mayoral recall

More significant fallout in the recall effort against New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell, as the signatures appear to have truly fantastic problems. The Registrar notes that the second batch of signatures (discussed here) seems to have consisted of duplicate photocopied versions of the original signatures -- which explains the 99% rejection rate. 

Additionally, a good number of signatures were clearly fake, including a page of cartoon characters. Note the Wisconsin 2012 recall saw this issue discussed at length (though only 5 fake signatures were found). There was also the great Japan recall, which saw hundreds of thousands of fake signatures. And today, in California, the Gascon recall found 367 names of dead people.

No word on whether there will be a prosecution for any clearly fraudulent signatures.
