Milwaukee Journal Sentinel:  “Separately Monday, the conservative groups True the Vote and Verify the Recall released their own analysis of the recall signatures against Walker. The governor asked in his filing with the accountability board that state officials take that analysis into account.

But Magney said the accountability board is not allowed by state law to do so.

“There is no legal basis for us to accept third-party challenges,” Magney said.

Mark Antill, executive director of True the Vote, said some people believe the accountability board could consider the petitions. He said the groups were considering whether to sue the accountability board if the elections agency doesn’t consider their findings.

“They would be remiss in not considering it,” he said.

The analysis looked through 138,200 of the total 152,500 pages of recall petitions. It found 534,685 signatures that were valid, 228,940 that needed further review and 55,608 that were ineligible.

Antill said the analysis didn’t reach a conclusion about whether there were enough recall petitions signed to trigger an election.”
