Now you need to do 38,000 manhours in a fairly short amount of time to let everyone know that the petition is good to go.
They are going to have to staff up a bunch of temporary workers for short term contracts.
But then they are potentially going to have to validate thousands and thousands of more signatures for all of the recall petitions... Elections Alberta wasn't built to be busy all of the time.

And knowing the UCP and their obsession with “security” they probably want some senior citizen to fill out a form containing the name and address of each signee by hand.
