According to Breit Bart discussing the Judicial Watch Lawsuit,
- Los Angeles County has more voter registrations on its voter rolls than it has citizens who are old enough to register. Specifically, according to data provided to and published by the U.S. Election Assistance Commission, Los Angeles County has a registration rate of 112 percent of its adult citizen population.
- The entire State of California has a registration rate of about 101 percent of its age-eligible citizenry.
- Eleven of California’s 58 counties have registration rates exceeding 100 percent of the age-eligible citizenry.
According to the Judicial Watch Lawsuit
What does all of this mean? It could mean that when the LA county registrar mandated that the Recall George Gascon Petition drive needed 566,857 votes to qualify, it was based on falsely inflated voter registration rolls of 5,668,570.
According to Breit Bart
If Los Angeles and California have been routinely not cleaning up voter rolls since the National Voter Registration Act was passed in 1993, the non compliance has helped insulate elected officials from voter recalls by artificially inflating the number of valid petition signatures needed to place a recall of an elected official on the ballot.
It seems plausible that a judge would prefer to rule in favor of a retroactive reduction in the number of valid petition signatures needed to recall George Gascon, or, it would incentivize non-compliance of Federal Law such as NVRA with the worst penalty being nothing but, compliance? How would that be fair to the Voters who were thwarted from being heard due to inaccurate petition signature requirements?
I am not sure how a lawyer for the recall George Gascon Petition would argue in court for a retroactively assessing a lower number of required signatures, but there may be an argument waiting to be made in court that would make the 2022 George Gascon Recall Effort instantly valid and whole.
If a judge did nothing more than agree that an instant reduction from 112% to 100% of all LA adult age voters as a way to establish a new, lower Gascon Valid Signature number, the 2022 George Gascon Recal petition would have passed! When we subtract 12% from 5,668,570 overinflated LA Voter Rolls it would decrease LA Voter Rolls by 680,228 voters. This would make the NEW 100% total voter rolls in LA 4,988,342. 10% of 4,988,342 equals 498,348 valid signatures needed for the Gascon Recall to go through. The "failed" 2022 Gascon Recall netted 520,00 valid signatures! The 2022 George Gascon Recall should be declared as having reached the proper signature total, AS IS!
The 2022 George Gascon Recall Petition netted 21,500 more valid signatures than were legally required based on 100% of all LA Adult Voters!
Put another way, the L.A. Registrar's Office required 68,000 additional valid signatures than were legally required for the George Gascon Recall Petition Drive to have been approved.
