The Arizona State Court of Appeals says it will release an opinion in City of Tucson v State of Arizona, 2ca-cv-2010-0083, on Wednesday, April 20. This is the case over whether the Arizona’s Constitution protects a city’s right to use partisan city elections if it wishes, or whether the state legislature can require all cities to use non-partisan elections. The voters of Tucson have voted in favor of partisan city elections, but in 2009 the legislature passed a bill requiring all cities to use non-partisan elections. The Superior Court had upheld the state law.
