Wisconsin collects 50,000 signatures in 48 hours.
A spokeswoman for the coalition working to recall Republican Gov. Scott Walker said they have collected 50,000 signatures in 48 hours.
United Wisconsin spokeswoman Meagan Mahaffey told The Associated Press on Thursday that the numbers are slightly ahead of their expectations.
Recall organizers need to average 9,000 signatures a day to get the 540,000 needed to force a recall election of Walker. They want to go well above that number, however, in case some signatures are invalidated.
The recall drive began Tuesday and the deadline for returning the signatures is Jan. 17.http://www.channel3000.com/politics/29797974/detail.html

2. Keep working hard. We need to average 10,000+ a day to meet...
... the goal (and have enough extra to withstand challenges).

3. Woohoo!
I should call my son in WI and ask how he fared with the petition.

On Wisconsin!
