City asks court to dismiss Tucson reapportionment suit
City of Tucson seeks dismissal in a civil action by Joseph I Brown over local elections. Brown alleges invidious discrimination by using registered voters for reapportionment and that councilmen should be elected by district rather than at large. He argues one man one vote applies to local elections and seeks a three judge panel if needed.
