DescriptionOrganizers of a grassroots campaign to recall Wisconsin Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald announced that they were submitting more than enough signatures -- 20,600 -- to state election officials Tuesday to trigger a recall election against the Republican senator from Juneau.

The number of signatures gathered is nearly one-quarter more than the required 16,742.

The campaign to recall Fitzgerald was run apart from the more organized and statewide effort by the Democratic Party of Wisconsin and United Wisconsin to recall Gov. Scott Walker and Lt. Gov. Rebecca Kleefisch.
