Copy of the PDF the BOE sent me: May 7 2013 Dayton Petition Reports

If any of you would like to speculate on why some candidates have higher rejection rates than others- or do statistical analysis- I’d be interested to hear what you have to say in the comments.

A few things- signatures aren’t collected on a table- usually on a clipboard- meaning signatures may not look the same as the voter registration card.

I’m not sure how someone can turn in “4 Late- Date follows collection”

And- it clearly says on the petition- “WHOEVER COMMITS ELECTION FALSIFICATION IS GUILTY OF A FELONY OF THE FIFTH DEGREE” which makes me wonder, how can you turn in over 200 signatures that don’t match and not be prosecuted.
