to recall in WI ?

1. 25% of the votes in the election that got them elected.

In Walker's case, that's about 540,000. BUT they must be collected w/in 60 days of petition and that can't be filed til January.

2. I believe 25% of the last vote counted...From all counties. Read that

somewhere and of course, WI residents only.

4. To be specific

the signatures must equal 25% of the number of votes cast for governor in the last election in the district in which the recall takes place. So for governor, that's about 540,000. For a senate district, it's 25% of the number of votes for governor cast in that senate district (about 15,000 to 20,000).
