Yeah, AFTER 1 million force an election costing $70 million on a state of 50 million. (Gee, I hope those numbers are accurate.)

Well, put it into perspective - of the 23 million adults of voting age residing in California, there are only around 15.1 million people who are registered to vote.
Of the 15 million who are registered to vote, less than half cast their votes in the last election (a mere 7.4 million).
Thus, the 900,000 signatures required to get the recall election *is* a significant number.
