117. Those were signatures to get on the ballot.
I'll sign for almost anyone to get on the ballot. I think people should run if they want to. If they aren't worthy of election, they won't be elected. (That's a pre selection 2000 mentality.)

I must admit that I would not sign for someone to get on the ballot if he was advocating a law to execute gays. However, I sign for people I know nothing about.

In other words, 1,144 signatures to place him on the ballot do not necessarily represent 1,144 signatures that agree with him in any way.
