Recall bid to land in court?

sacbee.com -- Politics -- Recall bid to land in court?

An opinion handed down Monday by California elections officials raised the prospect that a recall campaign against Gov. Gray Davis will go to a courtroom before it gets to the voting booth.

In a letter released late in the day, the secretary of state's office told elections supervisors in all 58 counties that while they must keep a continuous count of signatures submitted in support of the recall, they can wait a month before validating those signatures.

Some recall supporters threatened to sue, saying Secretary of State Kevin Shelley's interpretation is misguided and could delay until March an election that recall supporters hope to hold by late October or early November. A March election could give the Democratic governor the political advantage of a higher Democratic turnout expected for the presidential primary.
