The organizers of the recall petition against New Orleans Mayor LaToya Cantrell are filing a lawsuit.

Eileen Carter and Belden Batiste claim the list of active voters given by parish and state officials is off by more than 30,000 people.

They say a review of change-of-address records show those residents have moved out of Orleans Parish or died, and called the list a failure of the Orleans Registrar of Voters and Secretary of State to perform their duties.

The organizers say the alleged inaccurate list plays a "detrimental role" to their effort to recall Cantrell.
