Over 100 signatures were submitted to various county registrars on or before February 20th, with our signature-in-lieu-of filing fee petition. Once confirmed valid, every one of these signatures can be used to meet the requirements for the nominating petition, which only requires 65 signatures. Therefore it is very likely that enough valid signatures have been obtained to meet the minimum nominating requirements.
My sincere thanks to all those who help gather and turn in signatures.
