I guess this removes all ability of the GOP falsely being able to claim rampant cheating regarding the signatures over 500,000, because the GAB had the temerity to look at every. single. signature.

GAB staff finds more than 900,000 valid signatures to recall Walker

Madison - State election administrators have determined there are more than 900,000 valid signatures to recall Gov. Scott Walker and more than 800,000 to recall Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch - well above the minimums needed.
Staff for the Government Accountability Board struck more than 30,000 signatures each for Walker and Kleefisch. That includes more than 4,000 duplicate signatures the board identified for each of them.
The board is to consider the staff's findings at a Friday meeting in the state Capitol. It is expected to order recall elections that day.
Primaries are expected. If that happens, the primaries would be May 8 and the general election would be June 5.
Republican state senators are also expected to face recall elections on those dates.
