Karpinski said that the state board only requires the county board to verify the signatures by making sure they are registered voters.

It is not their job to determine if the signatures were all signed by the same person, he said.

Wow, so you can sign anyone's name to the petition and legally get away with it. No need to do anything but go through a phone book and have a few pens on hand. Disgusting all around.
