the signature must be witness by two people, and notarized.  then file it in a safe place, preferrably a copy should be left with an attorney. then yes, it is legal.

How do I prepare a petition? \n\n--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\nSpokesperson or Principal Petitioner\nThe “principal petitioner” or “spokesperson” is the person who has initiated or organized the petition on behalf of citizens, businesses or organizations.\nIf the petition is from a business or organization (unincorporated body), then a duly authorized officer of the business or organization should sign the front page of the petition on behalf of the business or organization. That person’s position within the organization (i.e. owner, president, secretary, treasurer, etc.) should also be included.\nThis person will be the main contact for the petition. Ensure that the spokesperson’s name is clearly printed and that their mailing address, street address (if it differs) and their telephone number are provided. Please include a daytime telephone number where the spokesperson can be reached between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. You may also wish to include the spokesperson’s fax number and an e-mail address.\nStyle of petition\nPetition forms are available from Members\nof Council and the City Clerk. Forms are also available in Adobe Acrobat format on the City’s web site at www.city.greatersudbury.on.ca.\nYou are not required to use the official form, but you should make sure that your petition:\n• is addressed to City Council,\n• asks City Council to take some action on the subject matter or concern of the petition,\n• identifies the principal petitioner or spokesperson,\n• includes the signature and local address of each petitioner, and,\n• if signatures are affixed to more than one sheet, then the intent, grievance or action requested of the petition must be repeated at the top of each signature sheet.\nLanguage of petition\nPetitions must:\n• be in English or French,\n• use respectful and moderate language, and\nnot contain irrelevant statements.\nWhen a petition is received in the French language, the City Clerk is responsible for translation of the document. Collecting signatures\nAlthough a petition requires a minimum of only two signatures to be accepted, the petition will be more representative of public feeling if it is signed by many people.\nIt is important to make sure the petition is properly prepared, following the rules governing petitions, before gathering signatures.\nSigning the front page of a petition:\nIn most instances, the first signature will be that of the principal petitioner or spokesperson.\nRemember, if you are signing on behalf of a business or organization you should include your position (i.e. owner, president, secretary, treasurer, etc.).\nRules for signatures on additional pages:\n• Additional pages with signatures must include\nthe petition’s statement of purpose at the top.\n• All petitioners must sign their own name;\nsignatures on behalf of a second party are not\nacceptable. If a petitioner is incapacitated and\nunable to provide a signature, the circumstance\nshould be noted beside the petitioner’s name.\n• Signatures must be original. Photocopied,\nfaxed, scanned, pasted or otherwise transferred\nsignatures are not acceptable.\n• Each petitioner must include the address of\ntheir primary residence.\nAttachments\nDo not attach letters, affidavits or other documents to the petition. \n\nHope that helps!

It would depend on your local States requirements as far as signatures on petitions are concerned as well as the office running for.  The populous state of California may have a higher number of signatures required than say North Dakota or Wyoming.  There is also a filing fee, in which for some offices is one charge with petitions and another without, however in the case of Federal Offices I am sure there is something a little more standardized than you will find for more local elections.  You must also have someone selected as treasurer or a responsible party for reporting all contributions to your campaign and how the money is spent, what is left over or how much debt the campaign has.  Best of luck with your paper.  You can contact your local county election office or the state in which you reside for more detailed information.

If you raise between $2 and $2.5 million you can hire a company that will get it done for you.  They get the legal wording done right, and then get the proper amount of signatures necessary to get on the ballot - I forgot the number needed but it hasn't changed much in the last few years even though the state has grown - which makes it easier.

Might be worth asking the CAB (citizens advice bureau) can fix you up with a legal-aid solicitor on one of the £5 for 20 minute style things they use to do.\n\nIf you cannot find someone to do this, then call a few solicitors, MOST will give you a free initial consultation to decided if there is anything thay can help you with - it is then up to yopu if you decided to proceed with them or not.\n\nIGNORE anyone who say "yes" or "lots of problems" - unless they can specifically quote WHAT law you are breaking - and also if it is a UK law.\n\nThere is a defence against libel and defamation IF it is in the public's interest. I would suggest that alerting people to unethical and underhand practice could be construed as being in the public interest. However I am not a solicitor or barrister - so would suggest you speak to one.\n\nFurthermore, in the UK, we do not tend to toss people into jail with quite as much enthusiasm as they do in other countries - and if you have little money to lose (no house etc) then you would not really be worth suing. So what they can REALLY do against you is probably fairly minimal.\n\nIt is intersting to note that presumably the domain name issuers has not chosen to take the domain away from you and award it to this niblo character. Something I would ave thought his legal folks would have done rather than waste their time.\n\nGet your site regsitered with google (search for "search engine submission") then even if you lose the site in the end, it will remain cached on search engines for a long time to come.\n\nAnd if you lose he website? then "allan_niblo_is_dishonest.com" or "allan_diblo_leaves_bad_debt.com" might be available. Just keep it true and keep the information in the public interest.
