Carole Keeton Strayhorn turned in over 200,000 signatures to the Texas State Secretary today, Frontburner reports that Kinky will turn in well over 100,000 signatures.
AP reported that Strayhorn had paid workers gathering signatures and I do believe all of Kinky's signatures were gathered by volunteers, but don't quote me on that.
Both independent candidates for Texas Governor were required to get 45,400 signatures by the May 11 deadline.
An e-mail from Kinky's camp this week said Kinky would present his signatures tomorrow at noon.

I do know that CKS was paying $1.50/signature. One of my clients was collecting signatures for her and earned easily $80-100/day. I have heard that Kinky paid some $1.00/signature but I don't recall where I read that information.
CKS was campaigning in the Love Field airport a few weeks ago when we were flying back to Nashville. She was on our flight to Houston and asked us to sign her list. She was not happy with us when we told her we weren't eligible.
