OPINION OF THE COURT

Edward H. Lehner, J.

This is a petition to invalidate the independent nominating petition of Frank J. Bárbaro as a candidate for Mayor of the City of New York in the general election to be held November 3, 1981. The petition as filed contained 40,050 signatures. The candidate for Mayor nominated by the Liberal Party has challenged the petition on various grounds that she believes reduces the number of valid signatures to below the 7,500 required by section 6-142 (subd 2, par [b]) of the Election Law.
